740 application processed within 6 months, of the nearly 27,000 received, is truly appalling, by any reasonable, or should i say unreasonable standards.

She stuck by the rules fully. She was instructed by the Irish Embassy in London to hold supporting documents, which she did. She even held more than was requested of her.

I am sure you are more than welcome as well Rozen, and your expertise will be hugely valued.

Lets put it this way. You are firmly on the right side of the rule. A refusal should not even be an option in your case. The documents they requested, was totally uncalled for. With these embassies, you sometimes don't know where they extract the rules they apply from. However, i do think you should...

Rozen, like yourself, I don't believe in solicitors at all. Thanks for this forum, that belief was reinforced.
