Hi everyone, i have a question that is rather unclear to me within the Irish nationality law. The revised version of the Irish nationality law states that a child born on the island of Ireland on or after 1 January 2005 and one of the parents was an Irish or British citizen, or if either of the par...

Hi there, I have a question I have had very little luck in getting an answer for from relevant embassies, so hopefully someone can help:) I am a permanent resident of South Africa, but also hold Irish citizenship. I have never lived in Ireland, but am hoping to do my Masters there, possibly at the ...

To simplify what has already been said:- No your wife cannot apply for Irish passport until she is naturalised as an Irish Citizen. bear in mind that the Department that deals with the process and issues the Naturalisation certificate is different from the one that issues passports. Hope this clari...

...a poster who probably is not from this island... I´m not from, but I´ve been to Ireland for quite some time (if six years count). I will never forget the day I travelled down Divis Road in Belfast (if I remember correctly, the Irish side of the divide anyhow) in a Belgian car (white numberplate ...

I know I'm not a citizen until it is granted, but I was wondering if they let you live there while the application is processed? I am American. I have not applied yet. I'm working with a solicitor over there to analyse my case to see if it is worth applying or not. Why? I think you probably need mo...

I am waiting for confirmation that I qualify for citizenship by descent, but I am wondering, would I be able to move to Ireland and work (in my own business) without a long stay visa before my application was finished (I understand it takes 12 to 18 months for the foreign birth registration)? Thank...

I thought you had to live in the republic not just on the island to get citizenship (not counting people like your husband who are born there)?

Sweet Lord, read your posts, the only rude and aggressive poster was you ' it started with you completely misunderstanding a comment made by another. Everyone else responded to you in kind with rudeness. If you sincerely believe that, I'd suggest you re-read the comments posted. In response to the ...

Thanks for the unhelpful and mostly rude or offensive comments by Dee1, Walrusgrumble and IrishEddy. Seriously, they were a joy to read. Just because citizenship has been granted, doesn't mean that you have to turn into a slavering idiot and drop all else ignoring the consequences. To close out on ...
