It depends if you have no complex issues (like convictions, penalty points and fines) with yor application, then there's the likelihood that you may get your approval within 6 months of your application. With your timeline furnished here, I'll suggest you expect some good news between now and January 2016. I actually won't be surprised if you get an approval any moment now as other people have been approved within 2 - 6 months of applying. Good luck to you.

Any one delays approval for penalty point ?
Pls share your experience .

Any one delays approval for penalty point ?
Pls share your experience .

You only get penalty points for a traffic offence caused by your bad driving. Bad driving is bad behavior and you're required to be of good character at all times in the state. There are consequences for a bad behavior (over-speeding, drink driving, driving with no insurance or license or NCT). The severity of your traffic offence will determine your punishment which may be a slight or prolonged delay or outright deferment for a decision for approval.

My personal opinion drink driving . Driving without Insurence and licence they are serious offence . But

Excess speed limit and Nct should be minor

Should not impact any one application

No one drive 60 k/h in 60 k/h zone

If you drive over 60 k/h doesn't mean your a bad charectar

Pls do not take it personal its just my opinion

Yea, we are all entitled to our different opinion on issues and it's nothing to take personal. But it is pertinent you take note that obeying traffic rules and ordinances IS THE LAW and when you do otherwise by driving above a speed limit or do not have on your vehicle a valid NCT, YOU ARE BREAKING THE LAW. It is an offence to break the (any) law while residing in the state and when caught, you can be assured that there'll be consequence(s) and it does impact on an application mate

Reasons why it would also attract a 'minor' delay in getting an approval too. I'm not trying to be a pessimist but just saying it as it is.

Hi All .
I.ve been reading the forum today and wanted to ask if long term absence from the state is an issue with the application .
I have been on stamp 4 through work since I arrived in 2007 and I decided to apply only recently ( submitted application last week along with my wife .

I have been travelling extensively through work outside Ireland ofthen for more than 6 weeks except for 3 years since that is the nature of my job in Ireland - travel and get more business back in ireland !

In my application I have given a detailed breakdown of my travel dates and the reasons for the travel .
Also explained that ive always come back to my family - my 2 daughters are irish born and they and my wife have always been here since 2007

I had also asked my employers to provide a detailed reason each of the years with > 6 weeks absence and they have happily provided a letter - similar to the one I made explaining the nature of job , that i am salaried , taxed and always employed with them and the breakdown of the dates .

I am not sure if anyone else has the same or has had the same experience as mine and problems I should foresee with my application .

All my coworkers with similar absence > 6 weeks applied before me and there was no such clause untill the new form last year.

regards, Erik

I respect your viewpoint, but I have differing view.

If a person unknowingly break a law or it is due to genuine mistake, or if situation is out of hand, it is possible that persons actions may be overlooked, but not in above scenarios. e.g. I know of someone who had to overstay his visa when all the flights were grounded due to volcanic ash in Iceland. if he decides to apply for naturalization, he will attach proof of the situation (and proof that he had informed immigration of his status) and I believe it will not be seen negatively.

Speeding or driving without NCT show disrespect for law as a person has intentionally broken the law. If a person is speeding, person is putting his/her life and that of fellow motorists as risk. The situation is same if a person drives car that is not roadworthy. So IMHO, these are serious offences and will impact application timelines.

can someone comment on this ?

[Gracious2015]

@erica123 I have seen people with more than 6 weeks away per year getting approval, also people being away for more than a couple of months getting their approval, but in their case they had a valid reason, and hence they could justify their absence.
From your post it appears that you have justified your absence from the state, given the nature of your job. Also you got your employer to detail your absence from the state. Moreover, your daughters are Irish which means you have family links in Ireland. Therefore, in my opinion I doubt this will delay your application. Good luck, keep us posted!

Hello Erik,
Going through your message here, it's quite certain that your reasons for your long absentee from the state is due to the nature of your job and that's more than justified as you've explained the reasons to the INIS backed up with that of your employers. I'd say you are in a good stead for an approval soon. I wish you an accelerated approval mate! As Gracious2015 opined, please keep this forum posted.

[erica123]

@gracious , kingdom - thanks for your replies . Yes we've given our reasons for absence and justified it with letters from employer . Lets see what happens
