On Feb 17th my passport was mailed. Due to the US Postal System my passport looped all around NYC for 4 weeks!!

Just thought I would mention this as I recently got a Stamp 6 on my non-Irish passport. Currently you can't book an appointment at the Immigration Office in Dublin for Stamp 6, all you need to do is send your non-Irish passport and proof of Irish citizenship (in my case it was the original naturali...

We've had three separate first time passport applications months apart. For two of them our witness in the US was telephoned, and for one, our witness was emailed. The most recent phone call was around 19:00 Ireland time (2:00pm EST here).
One day before my Estimated issue date and my docs still haven't been scanned in ..... :( :roll: They were two weeks behind before the holidays, and now it may be closer to three weeks behind. I'm tracking a second application, and it changed from "processing/verifying" to just "processing" one wee...

Is it ok to to put just 1 copy of the common documents needed for both (Grandmother's documents and parent documents) in one pile to be used by both daughter's?

I'm really interested in how you consolidated your applications. Are you saying that you submitted only one copy of all of your ancestry documents (including your parents), combined it with you and your sisters' information and submitted it in one envelope? Did you include a cover letter on what wa...
I'm not sure how pertinent it is to know but I sent off my application alongside my two sisters, with one set of original documents to cover all of us.

Hang in there jgclancy! My daughter's passport application is behind mine, and hers was stuck in Ireland for 10 days. It was definitely on the USPS side because An Post had no record of it until after it left the Dublin logjam.

My FBR and supporting documents arrived via the USPS in a white 8.5x11 envelope. It was included in the regular mail - no special delivery and no signature required. This was in April 2021.
Just FYI, I never received a congratulations email. After my confirmation of address email in December 2020, my FBR certificate and supporting documents surprisingly arrived at my home in the US four months later.
So far we have seen 12 weeks lead time because there was a backlog and when they started processing from first week of May - they were supposed to clear most of the backlog in 8 weeks. So, the processing was slow because of backlog till now. The question is - Anyone who applied only in May this yea...
