So i emailed this morning after my sisters news to ask has my application been approved and got a reply that I will "receive a correspondence from this office in the coming days" from team 5.

I hope this is information that i will be getting an approval letter from them in the post soon? Has anybody got this reply before?

Yesterday I got the same reply as yours via email. And today I received a letter with approval and request to pay 950 eur

So I got my approval on Jan 8th and send the fee and IRP on the very same day. My IRP was expiring on 28th Jan but I've sent it anyway.

Today I received a letter from the department stating that I am scheduled for the ceremony on 2nd of March and asking for my permission to remain to be extended.

I went to local immigration officer right away and got a stamp on my passport. And going to send a copy to the department tomorrow.

I know there are many people with an expired IRP here so I hope this helps!

And you got your citizenship after all those years? And nay explanation why it takes too long?

The Delay in processing this file is regretted, however, it is the case when an application is submitted to the Minister. We are obliged to ensure that all relevant information is available to the Minster in order for him to make a fully informed decision. Your patience is appreciated in this matter.
Yours Sincerely,

I received mail regarding fee and IRP card to be send yesterday but now away from Ireland on business trip and will be away till the week after.
It means will not make it within 10 days limit and probably will miss march ceremony

Does it mean that I can not travel outside Ireland until the ceremonies in August or there is the way to travel while Irish Passport application is finished? Have already 5 days trip booked in April.
