Thanks brother brother advise. I will go to pak embassy today and will try to attest my FRC birth cert before applying..Shaz4jazz wrote: ↑Mon Oct 18, 2021 10:14 amOne you tell them you got naturalisation through full refugee status and do not hold any passport I don't think they will ask. Please submit what they ask in the check listSmilemee wrote: ↑Sun Oct 17, 2021 2:06 pmHi .. thanks brother for your advise.. what about Nicop? Did u submit that one too or made a declaration?Shaz4jazz wrote: ↑Sun Oct 17, 2021 8:32 amYes you have to apply as first time passport as travel document is not a Irish passport.Smilemee wrote: ↑Sun Oct 17, 2021 2:50 amHi guys..
I have a query regarding first time application based on previous refugee status.
Being a refugee I had my travel document which means I have had my identity established and my passport number was already issued. Shall I make an application based on 1st time application ? And what documents would I be required as I don't have my passport neither ID card from home country ?
When you apply online there will be a required list of documents page which you have to provide them.
IE. PPS card copy, birth certificate, proof of address,
Passport of the country of birth (if you have one)
Garda verification form.
If you don't have a passport you can submit a declaration why you don't have one. Same as we submitted for our naturalisation application.
Hope answer the question.
And declaration should be signed by a solicitor or equivalent?
Getting Irish citizenship through naturalisation is a privilege not a right but applying for Irish Passport after getting naturalisation is a right they can not monkey around their burden of backlogs through these silly documents request which are not even mentioned in their checklist or require documents booklet when applying.Smilemee wrote: ↑Mon Oct 18, 2021 11:18 pmThanks brother brother advise.

Brother, It is my opinion, Ask your solicitor and send them a letter. Passport office is just buying time.Shaz4jazz wrote: ↑Tue Oct 19, 2021 2:04 pmUpdate regarding a friend.
Expected date 12 Oct
We chatted today and was told that it is being processed. He went after them and some remarks about their performance. With in one hour he got the email asking for further documents. IE nicop, FRC.
Today's update.
He web chated with them again.
And complaint about their in justifyable requirements. And asked them to give them the details of someone so he can send a legal notice to them through solicitor. He was asked for his mobile number so that a superior can call him. He gave the number and got a call and apologies for the delays and was told we are very busy and backlogs. My friend told them that this is not acceptable as these requirements were not on his checklist and you people are gaining time and we are suffering because of it. The lady on the phone gave his name and told him send me the documents asked and I will personally look after your application. And you will not be put in the que and their is no need to involve a solicitor. Guys what's your thoughts
My passport status changed to Printing on exact issue date. Between "Processing Application" and "Printing", I had contacted Passport office over chat . The status information given to me varied from one liner "Still processing. " to some detail status like "We are scanning applications recieived in First week of August and your application will be picked up in a week time", "Application is scanned and waiting for document verification. As of now all looks good and application should complete processing in time. But keep an eye on email for any extra document requested for".gaurav_s wrote: ↑Tue Oct 19, 2021 9:16 pmMy full timeline below for reference:
