It's nice to see things moving along again for all of those who got caught in Brexit/Covid lockdowns. I finally did my online passport application yesterday and will be mailing all my docs to Dublin within the week. My best estimate is that I'll probably receive my passport almost exactly 2 years to...
My situation is similar to Dana Maria. I received an e-mail on December 22, 2020 that my certificate was being printed and mailed. No tracking number was provided and I have not received the cert or my documents and am starting to get concerned as to whether they are lost in transit. Does anyone ha...

Has anyone received a tracking number with their email letting them know that the certificate has been posted? I got my congratulations email on December 17, 2020 and it said my documents had been printed and posted. Yesterday, I got a US postal notification of a piece of mail arriving in NY -- whe...
Hello again! Well, it's official. I got the "Congratulations, application for Irish citizenship through entry on the FBR has been successful" email today. (at 2:48 eastern standard time, Norfolk VA) :D It also said that the certificate has been printed and posted -- so it seems as if maybe they're t...
ReturningIrish, I also thought it would be well into January or Feb 2021 before I saw anything, I guess we were close before this last lockdown! Congratulations! Yesterday we received an email to say that my daughter's entry into the FBR will be approved shortly and asking us to confirm our postal a...
Good News for those from Summer/early Fall 2019! Today, I got my address confirmation email so clearly they are back at processing. To say I'm thrilled beyond belief is an understatement! For those who have been waiting over a year, hang in there -- what a Christmas gift this is! :D My Timeline Upda...
was on chat today, here is what the guy on the other side said: "We are currently working on applications registered from June to Sept 2019 . Due to the high volume of applications and Covid I am unable to give you an exact timeframe as to when you will be contacted ". Now I can get a little excite...
It's the day before St Patricks Day and my passport has finally arrived! How fitting, it feels real now :D Congratulations! Happy St. Patrick's Day indeed! I'm hoping COVID-19 won't throw too much a monkey wrench in -- I got my documents received e-mail on Sept 5 2019, and expect to hear sometime t...
Hello all! I'd dithered about applying for my FBR for over 3 years, and began compiling my documents. My paternal grandparents were both born in Ireland but my grandfather was easier to get the docs for. He was born in Belfast in 1900 and was able to get his birth certificate easily due to the info ...
