Please could you clarify how question 5.6 on Form 8 for naturalisation applies to an applicant of an Irish Spouse.
Question 5.6: "Have you been absent from the State for more than 6 weeks per annum in any of the past 5 years?"
Specifically my question is, when calculating the earliest eligibility date for a naturalisation application, should my reckonable residency deduct absences that exceed 6 weeks per annum in the past 5 or 3 years of my residency in Ireland? i.e. Given a spouse based application differs from that of an 5 year resident applicant, will absences within the last five years or just the last three years be considered against my reckonable residence?
