Fbr asked me to re submit a copy of my birth certificate. Is this the address?？circlethewagons12 wrote: ↑Thu Aug 26, 2021 2:11 pmThey are still recommending not to send in your documents on the website

But that is the address that I sent my application to in August/2019
Yes that is the correct address you havemaishun wrote: ↑Thu Aug 26, 2021 5:30 pmFbr asked me to re submit a copy of my birth certificate. Is this the address?？circlethewagons12 wrote: ↑Thu Aug 26, 2021 2:11 pmThey are still recommending not to send in your documents on the website

I'm worried that because my dear mother lied about her age on official documents, and that her birth certificate reads "baby" Rock ( my grandfather was away and my grandmother did not pick a name without him there I suppose. Rock is the surname) and does not actually have her first name on it, that there will be a problem. This is my second application, as they needed the complete marriage certificate and license of my parents. It's been quite a challenge getting all of it over there to Dublin, twice, and I am so impatient today. Other days are better! but I keep seeing dates after mine getting all these notifications and I become discouraged. Sorry for the downer note here. Perhaps there's good new coming in September for us all. Cheers and good luck everyone

My grandmother lied about her birthdate and my mother was named baby on her birth certificate!
I wonder what will happen when they review the paperwork?
My grandmother lied about her age when she got married so she was listed as nine years younger than she actually was compared to her birth certificate. It was the only discrepancy in my documents and it wasn’t even questioned and I’m now an Irish citizen.maishun wrote: ↑Fri Aug 27, 2021 4:34 amDon't be afraid of failure, send the documentsmonterey21 wrote: ↑Thu Aug 26, 2021 10:58 pmRickiclarkrickiclark wrote: ↑Thu Aug 26, 2021 12:30 pmhow do you all stay patient?

Hi Fbrlad, thank you for your post, no, didn’t receive a tracking code. Hopefully that means it hasn’t actually been sent yet.Fbrlad wrote: ↑Fri Aug 27, 2021 4:53 pmDidnt they include a tracking code? It seems they always send a tracking code when the post it. I heard of people who got registered much, much earlier than the congrats email. Usually on same day of address confirmation, they would have actually entered you into their database
My update didn’t include tracking info - not sure how they send it, but it was ultimately fulfilled by USPS. I was actually very surprised when my certificate made it to California six days later.Geosuzie2 wrote: ↑Fri Aug 27, 2021 3:52 pmHi everyone,
Long time lurker, July 2019 applicant.
I received my ‘congratulations your certificate is in the post’ email at the end of April 2021 but I’ve yet to receive it. I’m concerned that my documents may have gone astray, especially since i’ve read that some of you have recently received your certificates after being added to FBR much later than April.
Is anyone else in the same boat?
Suzie
While it can vary wildly, it took me 36 days (just over 5 weeks) after “address confirmation” to receive the congratulations message.
Thats true. Some applications are even processed in cork! Total shambles. The problem is lack of access to FBR. No phone or email or letter answers. I suppose if the application has no status, it is less stressful.. at least we would believe its still on the shelf rather than worrying about postage issuesdolewhip wrote: ↑Mon Aug 30, 2021 6:39 amWhile it can vary wildly, it took me 36 days (just over 5 weeks) after “address confirmation” to receive the congratulations message.
Some people never received a congrats email but still received their certificate plus docs.
That said, receiving the congratulations email but no docs (within 2 weeks of said email) is something I’d inquire about.
Congrats! I suppose there is no need to get an email about shipment if you already for “approved” email in July.kwong22 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 30, 2021 2:16 pmUpdate! My FBR has finally arrived!! I found it strange that I got no tracking number or email saying my FBR was printed/being shipped, nonetheless it was a great surprise when I got home from work! Now to apply for my passport, which should hopefully take a lot less time.
