Received my approval in September. however the ceremony in November was full.
Hoping we get it in the first quarter of 2019.
Did you ask to return IRP back to you in the meantime while waiting for next ceremony?
Nope, However if the IRP has to be up to date at the ceremony date. if its expiring soon they Naturalization office will get in touch with you and send the card so you can renew it.
approval in September last year, My GNIB card expiring 29/03/2019. Naturalization office didn't get in touch with me yet, what should i do?

Just found this:
https://www.kildarestreet.com/wrans/?id ... 118#g636.r
I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the next date for a citizenship ceremony has been set for April 29th 2019 at the INEC in Killarney County Kerry.
As soon as additional dates for 2019 are agreed, these will be communicated via the INIS website.
So it does look like the ceremony date is set for 29 April. I wonder why they haven't announced on the website or informing people over the phone for this date. I recall that there was a ceremony in September last year which wasn't advertised as it was already full. I hope that is not the case and they do start rolling out approvals/invitations soon. Fingers crossed!

Great! That takes some of the suspense away so people can at least hope to be invited to one of the 3 ceremonies.

Good Morning,
Could someone tell me what does it mean if the INIS wrote in the approval letter that "send the required documents within 10 days in order to be considered in the next ceremony"? Does it mean that I will be scheduled for the ceremony of April?
Thanks

Those it say on everyone's approval letter to send 950euro and GNIB within 10 if they want to be considered in the next ceremony? I'm just thinking if this is their general template or to those they really want to attend next ceremony.

I think it's their general template as they said the same to me last year before 26th November 2018 ceremony to submit fees with in 10 days but they never invited me to ceremony.

Hi,
It will be unfair if they don't include me in the 29 of April ceremony. I have been waiting for 3 years and a half for the approval for no valid reason.

I am sure you will be included, they prioritize older applications when filling up ceremonies. They should start sending invititation by end of March/early April.

Congrats. Did they send this email replying to any question of yours?
I was approved on Aug/2018 with the same message ("if paid with 10 days...") but was not invited to the following ceremony.

Hi All,
Could you please tell me if anyone has received an invitation letter for the 29 of April Ceremony? If not, when it should be expected to receive the invitation?
Thanks
