Re: Did not declare spent conviction in 2019 application

I don't think so, they did all necessary checks when you applied for settled status.

of course child is not allowed to travel.
Just curious: but the child still can travel abroad, the problem will be with returning? Unless the child gets approved and someone will bring a new passport for the child

Given that one of you is already a Latvian citizen (based on your profile's flag), the child will also acquire Latvian citizenship and thus EU citizenship. So why do you feel the need to acquire Irish citizenship for the child as well?
Just was asking out of curiosity

Giving a birth in Northern Ireland

Hi, me and my wife are both naturalised UK citizens living in the UK. Just wondering, if we come to Belfast to give a birth, will our child have an opportunity to claim Irish citizenship?
Thanks

Re: UK citizenship certificate - patronymic name (incorrectly?) included

No, that’s the interesting part. We didn’t include it. So some case worker or other staff member made the effort to have it transcribed from Russian. Very unlikely that they did it themselves, so probably a Russian-speaker had to be involved. Does your wife have it on her citizenship certificate? As ...

Did you write the patronymic name somewhere in the application? My wife also has a patronymic name in her Russian passport but it is never mentioned anywhere in the UK docs. She recently got her first UK passport and no traces of patronymic name (however, just in case, I made an enquiry to HMPO ...

Can't tell you about Liverpool, but in Glasgow there were plenty of free appointments, we could book one even for the next day after submission. If there are not enough slots in Liverpool, search for other nearby cities

Re: wife's naturalisation application without entry stamp

UK is phasing out physical stamps gradually, it is not a problem that there is no stamp, most people don't get it anyway, especially residents. Everything is being recorded electronically, so nothing to worry about. Just scan the whole passport, even blank pages.

Re: Isle of man residence and British Citizenship

Living on the Isle of Man or in Jersey/Guernsey counts as you would live in the UK. But as far as I know, if you live there, you should use another form to apply, not the standard online AN form for the UK residents.
