Guys you do realise once you get citizenship + passport, you can only live in another country up to 7 years and fill out a form every year saying that you want to keep your citizenship. After 7 years, you lose it if you don't live here. Nope, that's not correct. You've misunderstood. note on revoca...

I'm afraid post-nuptial citizenship no longer exists in either British or Irish nationality laws.

As it was my mother, not my father, that is British, I would actually have to go through a similar process to this in order to become British. I am able to "apply" for British citizenship using form UKM, but I also run into snags in that process. But to register as a British citizen, assuming you w...

If you are a family member of EEA national and you are travelling together (or you joining him), there is no point to enter as a tourist (even if you just coming for a short visit). The requirements to enter as a family member are much simpler than a tourist. Your intentions are not relevant. If yo...

Hi chursy, Are you a British citizen or do you hold another form of British nationality? If you are a British citizen, are you also a European citizen or does your British citizenship come from somewhere in the British Isles other than the UK (and you are without a "qualifying connection" to the UK)...

If your son is no longer dependent on you, then he would have no right of residence with you. Nope, that's not quite right. There is another category which does not require dependence: Without prejudice to any right to free movement and residence the persons concerned may have in their own right, t...

Ah, good find. Well that's that then: no resumption of British citizenship unless renouncing it was necessary in order to become a citizen / retain the citizenship of a third country. As Ireland doesn't have a problem with dual or multi nationality, then if the OP chooses to renounce his British cit...

OP, renouncing British citizenship is a big step and costs money. However, it can be subsequently reclaimed (only once) for a further fee. I believe it can only be reclaimed if the reason for renouncing it is when it is required to acquire another citizenship, which is not the case in this situatio...

If you're resident and working in Ireland, your spouse has the right of residence. With that, comes the right to work. Evidencing to a prospective employer that your wife has the right to work, however, is difficult unless she has a residence card. Application for a residence card is submitted on fo...
