I believe one photo is affixed to your naturalisation certificate. And given sometimes years between application and approval they want updated photos. You’ll need another set of four photos for your passport application after the ceremony

Invite to Nov 26 10am received in Northern Ireland. Finally.

Hi...would you plz let me know when did u get approved i got approved 1st of august but still did not get invite....thank you... Are you Northern Ireland based? I have been waiting for Irish resident ones to sing about their invites. Northern Irish based approvals (like me) would expect their invit...

The word cumulative would imply 40k spread over the three years but that's just my opinion. Best check with INIS

Exactly what I'm doing but then letters to Northern Ireland arrive three days after date of issue so I'm counting on some of you Republic-based candidates to report your invitations ASAP so I know when to *really* look!

Definitely Stage 1.

Hi,
I had a request for similar information in April 2018, Received my second stage letter in June 2018 and Approval in September 2018. I doubt you will be at the November 2018 ceremony unfortunately.

Invitations are sent 4 to 5 weeks ahead of the date of ceremony. I would be expecting invites to be coming out during the last fortnight of October

Thanks for reply. I have no offence traffic etc . I hope and pray will be sorted before next ceremoney. Waka786, having just received approval I can help you range find a little. The next ceremony is 8 weeks from today. INIS state invitations (completed, paid approvals) are sent 4 to 5 weeks in adv...

Glad I booked flight, hotel and car for that day just on the off chance. €950 sent back today, tracked, registered, 1 day delivery.

Thanks Kib for the reply. Don’t worry I’d love to hear your speculation please share anything to keep me and potentially others sane! I applied based on marriage to an Irish spouse for Northern Ireland in April 2017. I do not believe my application was even looked at save for copying and returning ...

I never got through on the phone line. My application turned 17months old on Monday when I surprisingly received my approval letter. I had emailed a week ago for an update and never got any automated response either. Read enough timelines here and you discover no rhyme or reason to application/appro...

Well based on the hearsay here for 26/11 ceremony and second stage letter received 03/06, I booked flight to Killarney, hotel and car hire just in case. Fingers crossed, can cancel car and hotel if it doesn’t work out. @KiB: This is what my friend we can call "Height of optimism" Approval received ...

Rang the office this am, lady on the told that my application is being processed at the minute, she will ask the team to send me update and that I will get it next week. Any suggestions what does this mean? Seniors can you help please. You got through? Least someone does answer I guess. I've tried ...

Thanks for the heads up over BoI. Opening a First Trust account in readiness. Be advised I have a two week wait for an appointment to open said account...

Michael,

I got a bankers cheque from Bank of Ireland in Lurgan made out in euro--you need someone with an account with the bank though. I went there since Bank of Ireland is in the Republic too. That was in April 2017 though...

Perhaps , I call it insurance. Gleneagle pretty much booked out Sun 25th. Only lose £48 if it doesn’t happen/I’m not approved in time.

What nationality is your wife? I’m UK applied in April 2017, second stage June 2018. Sending a certified copy of your passport should have been done with original Form 8. If your wife not UK citizen then they are asking for proof of eligibility of residency on the island. Be advised you will also ne...
