It’s finally here! Best of luck to those waiting. They returned all the copies I sent. My good bye timeline: Applied: 3/10/2017 2nd Letter: 5/11/2017 Approval: 7/03/2019 Ceremony: 29/04/2019 Passport: Applied: 30/04/2019 Received: 05/06/2019 Passport Express.

Thanks 🙏 Makem I really do appreciate! I just received a reply to my email now telling me the same thing! Your application is currently at an advanced stage of processing! While it’s not possible to give a specific time frame for a decision, this office will be in touch with you once a decision has...

Just got a call from the passport office saying they cannot progress my application (applied on 02/05) as my birth certificate is not the original one (I got a copy sent by municipality and officially translated and it was enough for the naturalisation application). :cry: So now they will send my d...

Finally dispatched this morning. Should have it by tomorrow.

Finally it has changed to printing! Hopefully I get it on Tuesday 😊 I think passport express has a guaranteed next-day delivery, so if it's printing today, you should have it by tomorrow. Good luck :D Fingers crossed 🙌🏽 However it didnt change to Dispatched and it was still processing up til 4pm. S...

Congratulations! Mine is sadly still processing and no ETA even after asking customer service. Initial ETA was 27th of May and status bar going backwards. To be honest I was presently surprise when they rang me and told me it will be print and post, because when I chat to the guy on web chat he sai...

Finally received my brand new Irish passport today! I applied on 3rd of May, on my application my original issue date was today 29th of May, but I had a web chat with them yesterday about my travelling date on 9th June, they said they will put a note on my application for sending back my original p...

ETA delayed. Initially 28/05, then 03/06, and now 05/06.

At least they changed your date.. mine is still 27/05.

Now my status bar is going backwards

the estimated issue date is today but still saying processing. The issue is that my flight is already booked for 1st June, I spoke to office and on web chat re: same and sent them email but no luck yet. You can request your original passport to be sent back: they cant send the certificate back thou...

My status bar reached its end, however it is still processing. I was speaking to customer service and there could be up to 2 weeks delay because May is busy.

I got in touch with them today to check if the photos I sent were fine as I was worried mine wouldn’t be accepted and the chap on the chat said the following: Okay your application is being processed,I can only advise you to keep track of your application online. Please note that this estimated date...

Today it has changed from “your application has been received” to “application is being processed”. Which makes me think there is a 2 week backlog at the moment.

Guys, I am shaking. Just got home from work and the brown envelope was there. Posted yesterday, after 1 year and 5 months I finally got my approval. Best of luck to all of you and I guess my theory was right!!! Sorry to bother you, recently someone ask me which team deals final approval letter? Is ...

I sent mine on the 30th. For the first 2 days, it wouldnt appear in the system. Now it does and it gives me the 27th of May as the delivery date. Exactly the same situation for me, applied on 30th and today it started to show on the tracker with an estimated date of delivery on 27th May. I wish Cit...

A friend called and was told there will be a small one for 300 people in June to target really old applications.

Not sure if anyone has seen it, but good news for whoever is applying from this year onwards. It looks like there are some improvements to be implemented to the current process: The INIS Service Improvement Plan 2018-2020 commits the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Departme...

Received letter today(dated12/4/19). Sent them 950 and other things today. Is it too late for this ceremony? Fingers crossed

Did your letter also say 5 days to send back? If so, I’d say you have chances. Congrats on your approval btw!

I completely understand your frustration and I am sorry you’re going through this. I also applied in 2017 and only received approval in March. It’s hard to guess why they take so long... I guess if you didn’t have to wait that long you won’t know how it feels. Anyways, my suggestion to you is to rea...

Just had an e-mail from them today saying that: Please be advised that invitations are currently issuing for the Citizenship Ceremony due to take place on 29/04/2019. You should be receiving yours over the coming week. Further details will be contained on your invitation. Regards Citizenship Helpde...
