Statement from Minister Flanagan on the decision of the Court of Appeal re citizenship applications I have now asked my officials to do everything possible to organise a Citizenship Ceremony to take place in December. Further ceremonies will take place early in 2020. I don't think he'd announce thi...

Lads, it means that rule remained the same as it was prevously or something still changed? 6 weeks absence still in power? Yes... To quote the solicitor... The decision today takes us back to the position pre July 2019 where absences of up to six weeks were permitted, with no guidelines related to ...

It sounds like a bit of a slap for the High Court judge Barrett. Can't imagine he'll have a long and distinguished career after making such a error of judgement - not just that the judgement was bad, but that it had such a widespread negative impact.

Why not use existing timeline threads? Because those are timeline threads. Other threads have always existed about upcoming ceremonies. I don’t know why u are bothered by this one Because what you're asking for is people to post the same information twice. Once in the timeline thread of when you go...

Why not use existing timeline threads?

I'd expect news on the ruling will come out quickly. I follow the Immigrant Council of Ireland a few reporters on twitter - won't post links, but it's not rocket surgery to find them. Immigrant Council has said: We'll be at the #CourtOfAppeal today to hear the judgment on requirement for #Continuous...

The Courts website is still offline so they are posting documents on TwitDoc. Here is the Court of Appeal list. Relevant case is at 1.45pm (not 12.45 as posted by the solicitor). Thursday the 14th November 2019 In Court 1, Court of Appeal Building The President, Ms Justice Whelan, Mr Justice McGover...

Sorry to ask this, what exactly this means in the article? Is this what is gona happen in tomorrow verdict ? apologies if iam not clear here :( High Court ruled. This ruling was appealed. Court of Appeal reserved (delayed) issuing its own ruling. Tomorrow the ruling will be delivered. We have no id...

This really does not make sense at all. How can we tell if the update made by our brother/sister is true. Moderator, you allow us to add news links and etc. Some of us have been in limbo for years waiting for a stupid passport plus rejection on top of that come on, what did u verify the link yourse...

Can you please guide how you applied for 'Freedom of Information request'?

http://www.justice.ie/en/JELR/FOI%20App ... 20Form.pdf

I received my Freedom of Information request on my Naturalization, and dates show my Garda Vetting was completed in Sep 2019. Can anyone explain, where exactly I am in the process, cannot judge myself I am in Stage1/Stage2 processing. https://www.immigrationboards.com/ireland/citizenship-applicatio...

This is well covered in these boards if you search. It's total time out, per year ("year" is counted from the date of application).

No, in answer to your inevitable next question, you don't count days of travel if you were in Ireland for any portion of the day.

Not sure it would be the worst case. All good points. We can't know what grounds an appeal could take as it would depend on the ruling. My inner pessimist thinks there is probably a worst case scenario out there which we haven't yet imagined. That might be another appeal, additional complexity in t...

Where does this all leave us now? The next milestone is the Court of Appeal ruling. It could be delivered today, or it could take much longer. No way to find out (unless you work in the CoA!) You can see the latest rulings here but it's more likely you'll hear about it in the news before it gets pu...

As usual, markem, your charts are oh-so-apt and incredibly insightful. Always a pleasure to look at them- thank you! Yes, I applied in the last week of June and got my reference number and receipt of payment in the post yesterday after 16 weeks... Thanks! And thanks for your update on the timeline ...

Please no one tell me he wait the decision because the minester at 11/9 he said they will put the bill quickly to change the law why he wait what he want 😡😡😡😡 Because the case is sub judice and the court must be left to make its ruling. To interfere now would circumvent the Courts system and set a ...

There is a lot of red tape here and I can bet you they will do nothing until brexit is finalized! I have also been told the Minister has manufactured this case to hold everything up until after Brexit. Do not see any logic why it can be related to the Brexit. Not being dumb or ignorant but what doe...

Just bumping this as the chart has been updated. Despite INIS not being able to approve applications or schedule ceremonies, they don't seem to have done much on acknowledging applications either. Average time to provide an application number is now at highest in 5 years. Here's a chart of average t...

And why they are holding on decisions for those applicants who didn’t go out not even a single day prior to the submission of application? INIS doesn't know which applicants remained in Ireland for a full year. This information is not required on the application form. Yes, perhaps they could ask, b...

No one has any clue one of my good friend linked with the legal system here in Ireland knows things inside out and his predictions and whatever he said become true: He said this is planned by courts and minister due to Brexit as they wanted to know what will be the final outcome as... Are you reall...

pls when is the next Ceremony date

Great question. Have you read the news?

Foreign nationals are formally given citizenship at ceremonies attended by the justice minister but two ceremonies planned for September and December were cancelled following July’s ruling.

If they don't let you go anywhere one year prior to lodging the application, what else would you call it? The Minister has said he does want people to be able to travel and is prepared to change the law to allow this. You cannot let them own you and stop you from travelling around the world, just f...

There’s nothing in their schedule next week about citizenship  . Do what will happen if the minister still sleep What schedule? If you're talking about the Court of Appeal their ruling could be issued in writing. If you're talking about the Oireachtas then they won't schedule anything until the rul...
