Updated list. Congrats to all recently successful applicants. I am wondering if people from some of the earlier months are still waiting or if they actually received their certificates. I mean for instance Cindy from June 2018 or Nydccub / Rick81 from August 2018. There are also a few others from Se...

Hello. New here, so please forgive me if this is the wrong place. The grandparent through whom i am making my application does not have a current state-issued identification (from the UK).

I got my estimated passport issue date from the tracker and it's saying, 28/11/19.

Having completed my FBR and Passport journey, my wife has asked if I can help her with her FBR application. This clearly makes me a glutton for punishment.

Hey Sulla, Would a pay statement from my place or work that has my name and address work as a proof of address? I plan on using that with two different bank statements. Thanks Keith I think it has to be something that has actually been posted to you. I would just stick to the list that TomRiddle pr...

In USA-at first I had no idea about a "stamp" Stamps are a very UK/Ireland thing I think - it's basically a rubber stamp with their name, address, phone number, etc on. I was surprised they asked for it, it's very retro. Not that common these days, but then business cards are quite old fashioned to...

Hello everyone! Can someone let me know if there is a thread for applying for/receiving Irish passports after receiving your FBR?
