Cant believe Are they still not processing March 2020 applicants yet. Feels like they’ve been doing February 2020 since the Stone Age

My docs received 25th March 2020, any estimates on when I’ll hear from them are most welcome

Any March 2020 approvals at all yet ?

I’ve Just past the 26 month marker last week. Interested if anyone is on the same timeline as myself

Fabulous news to share! I just received the address check for the FBR application for my three children. We applied in Dec 2019 and our paperwork receipt email confirmation was dated Jan 27 2020. Congrats Sounds like they are Still only working on jan 20 applications . Thot they would be into late ...

Does the kids count in this situation also? Children, yes. Here's the link from that email: https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/travel/entry-exit/non-eu-family/index_en.htm Under EU rules, you have the right to travel together with your core family members (non-EU spouse, children, dependent pare...

Slightly Off topic But I’m hoping someone can answer. When I join FBR (should be any week or so now I hope) and subsequently apply/get my Irish passport I’ll be the only one within my family (wife & 2 kids) who has one alongside my UK passport. The wife & kids are UK passport holders. When it comes ...

Hello all, I have received a phone call today from the FBR team to say that my citizenship application has been approved. The FBR team said that I should receive an email soon with tracking details etc. and that I should have my certificate in a couple of weeks. 😁 Timeline Application: 06/01/2020 D...

"However we then discovered the recent EU decision that the days spent in the EU with their spouse who is an EU citizen don’t count towards the 90/180 days, only days spent in the EU on their own. So that meant my application on its own would be enough." Ooh, this is interesting... Do you have a li...

Does anyone know if ID documents that expire during the wait are still usable by the FBR team. I just remembered that my driving license expired in Oct 2020, it has been renewed but given that my fbr docs were sent to Dublin in March 2020, the fbr team obviously have the old license. I’m also pretty...

*** UPDATE *** Application submitted: 21 Sep 2019 Documents received: 2 Oct 2019 Address confirmation: 29 Dec 2021 Congratulations email: FBR cert received: Spreadsheet has been updated. Good luck everybody! That's awesome, congrats. I'm getting the idea that the "2 years" the FBR is now saying is ...

Hi Just contacted the very unhelpful webchat team and got this response on my application they are an utter joke! 2021-11-04 13:44:45 | System: You are now connected to xxxxx. 2021-11-04 13:45:04 | Agent: Thank you for contacting the Passport Office. My name is xxxx. How may I help you today? 2021-...

Hey guys, about to start this. I should have started last year really but was waiting for my Father to get his documents back from his passport application which he just got back.. Is there a way to fast track this for a business requirement? I am willing to pay anything. I am going to get a witnes...

Yeah I don't think FBR Team numbers are particularly relevant. Though not all teams are equal it seems. They work at different speeds. The members of each team are not likely to be the same people 1 or 2 years down the line anyway. They seem to all be on their holidays, everyone else ack to work ex...

They really need to get back to work. Organisations throughout the world have found ways of getting themselves back to work & being productive. I’m far from the front of the Q in my application but I’m sick of the Covid excuses, enough is enough. It’s not as if we’ve all just paid a tenner for this...

I have to say, the fact that the office is likely now closed again all the way until at least April is absolutely insane. I could understand the office being closed during the first lockdowns, when this situation was new and the whole world was caught by surprise and shut down, but they've now had ...
