Yes, you must disclose those as per question 11.1 on the form: "Have you ever committed any offences against the laws of Ireland or any overseas country?" Give details of the offences, request copies of receipts. People mistakenly think that offences commited outside of Ireland or the EU cannot be d...

Affidavit is not an automatic solution for every occasion when a person is not able to provide original birth certificate. You need to show sufficient evidence that your country of birth refused to give your birth certificate or that getting one is impossible for this reason or another. Your words a...

The problem that might occur is the witness may refuse to sign it and request the original passport to be shown or refuse to sign the declaration if it has already been signed because it must be signed by applicant in their presence. Try and see.

You need to be present and sign the declaration in presence of a witness. The witness has to verify your identity and fill in the form as well.
As per letter that was included, if you do not return it in 4 weeks, you will have to attend a ceremony.

Please don't create a new topic for a query that can be covered in an existing one: https://www.immigrationboards.com/ireland/affidavits-for-approved-applications-and-next-ceremony-t311235.html He will be asked to attend a ceremony at a later date. Also he should inform ISD if he is away for more th...

See, I told you the truth!)
Congratulations!

I never received an invitation to online naturalisation ceremony despite getting the certificate in March :( Declaration is a 3 page documents and must be included with the approval letter and additional instructions. Two of my former colleagues received it by post last week, not by email. Not sure ...

I know it probably won’t help much, but do you know when (which month) in 2020 they applied?

I don't know, did not ask. Both married to Irish citizens and applications were based on the marriage. That's all I know.

I think you are your friends are an exception to the rule!! i applied months before them and havent heard anything neither have others on this site who applied in the early part of the year

I am sure we will see more reports shortly about decisions being made regarding applications from 2020.

hi vorona its good news for those applied in 2020 .does those peoples were asked for e vetting before they got there decisions ? i have also applied since since july2020 still waiting . I don't know. I applied in March, got a decision earlier this year but I did not receive any e-vetting form. E-ve...

Ok, two former coworkers of mine just told me that they have received decision today, both have applied in Summer of 2020. Looks like 2020 applications are now being finalised.

It doesn't say that. It says: "To help us to prioritise the processing of citizenship applications over the summer months, applicants are asked not to submit applications and accompanying passports between 25th June 2021 to 30 September 2021, if you think that you will require your passport during t...

Yeah, it also felt very strange to me. Before I go with FOI we may ask them via email. citizenshipinfo@justice.ie is this the contact address of the department? Yes, that is the correct email address. Put in the application number, and ask clearly in the email to send you copies of all letters that...

Hi everyone, My wife applied for citizenship in March 2020 and got her papers back probably by May 2020. Since then its complete silence. Normally people get a second stage letter and not even that for her. It's been more than 1 year for her and no movement at all. Would you guys suggest me to go f...

Thanks. I can do that, but then for the uploading of the GNIB/IRP cards in the 'Submit' section, they ask for scanned copies of the GNIB/IRP cards. Do I just upload word documents instead, stating that because of where I live, I don't have them? Just checked the documents that they sent to me. Here...

just enter "not applicable" or "0123456789" for those numbers.

If you leave Ireland for a long period of time, the application can ...

No. Anyone seeking to get married needs to attend the registrar for an interview, regardless of nationality. No at all. Only couples where one person is an Irish citizen or EU citizen and another person is from another country outside of EU. My husband and I were invited to the interview because he...

No.

If anyone else gets the naturalization cert please keep this group posted. Atleast we will know that new batch has started to trickle.

Stop this absurd requests of keeping you posted. When people have anything to say they will do so.
Be patient.

And I can't simply afford renting anything at this moment.
What is my options?

Find cheaper place or someone who you can share with.
This is not an immigration matter.

Mine was a standard post and left in the letterbox with newspapers.

The Witness must be resident in the State and the Declaration must be administered / witnessed in the State:

Friend's timeline for statistics Application based on: Residency, Brazilian citizen with stamp 4 employment permission. Application date: 01 April 2021 Application received: 05 April 2021 Acknowledgement: 11 June 2021. Letter says that application has not been examined yet and further examination is...

What's really disappointing is the poor quality of the communication the Department employed to engage with the applicants. They have no problem giving applicant the most generic and misleading updates about the applications or anything else, and at the same time warning that sending repeat emails i...
