the state's law for the consent age is 16 except in mental health system which is 18.
So I assume that is the reason they have asked for vetting/your child's signature.

Finally got invitation letter today for 5th December for my wife. This is the end of my journey which started in 2016 when I applied, then got my approval in 2019, then 2020 my child and 2021 my 2nd child, and now my wife. Thanks to all members of the group who have been supportive throughout this p...

My wife Got email confirmation for processing of fee on 8th November, still awaiting for the invitation.

I sent them the Garda vetting form 2 weeks ago. How long generally they take to process it and what will be the next step?

Today sent them the Garda vetting form. How long generally they take to process it and what will be the next step?

I don’t think your move to UK will affect your child’s application. As you mentioned your child is in Ireland, attending school, most likely has a GP here (sometimes department asks for further letters from school or G). You don’t need to inform the department about your move to UK as you are alread...

Could someone please comment: I paid fee for my child’s naturalisation on 25/6/22, got email reply on 22/7/22 that fee is processed and a certificate will be issued and will take 2-3 days to be delivered by An Post registered post (tracking number N/A). I have not yet received the certificate. I sen...

They need 2 photos, Bank Draft for €2000.

It was registered post.

Finally got certificate for my child today.
Applied in August 2019, Approval in October 2020, Fee paid in October 2020.

Got letter in October-November 2020 to submit fee and photographs which I sent. Got email replay in December that it will be sent in next 2-3 weeks.
Since then complete silence. Ridiculous functioning of department. Can’t figure out what is reason of delay in printing the certificate.

Lately the department has been asking docs to be submitted again and again and at times the same docs as well.
So as long as you are okay to response to such requests from the department.

This is not unusual thing from them. They can ask the same document and once you provide them after few months they can again ask the same thing. I can’t get the sense behind this but have seen this with many applicants. In this case if they are My suggestion is that you need to provide same explana...

Got approval in October 2020, sent fee and photographs. Still no certificate

They sent approval letter for my child in October 2020 and I submitted fee and photographs. They are not able and capable of simply issue the certificate for minors. This shows the pathetic approach of department and how slow is their working ( if they still call it working of their department).

Hi all,
Is the re entry visa for minor (already in Ireland) closed due to covid or INIS still issues re entry visa to children?

I sent fee and 2 photographs for my child in Nov 20, no response from them yet and awaiting the cert.

I submitted fee and photographs in Nov and still awaiting. For the minors the delay in issuing the certificate is unimaginable and reveals the state of affairs in this department and efficiency of govt as a whole.

I hope so. They haven’t mentioned age groups so let’s see

Finally Got the letter for sending draft €200 and photograph for my child’s application. Applied in August 2019.
Now waiting for my other child’s application (applied in February 2020).

Hi, Don’t worry. They just copy and paste emails. so don’t take any word from this office as a confirmed news. It happened to me during my own application couple of years ago and also now recently with my child’s application. For my child application I sent them an email last month. they did not rep...

This is probably the latest update for Children residing in the state.
