Naturalization application query

[fromdublin]

I am non eu married to Irish national in 2006; received stamp-4 for 5 years in 2006, recently expired and got renewed. Separated with wife, have one child living full time with me. Told DOJ got stamp renewal on the basis of custody of child. Child is Irish.
Q 1. Three references from Irish citizens
Can naturalised Irish citizen sign the form
O-2 apply on the basis of marriage or my 60 months.
Q-3 I was receiving one parent family, will attach letter from court custody orders and DOJ visa renewal letters with my application.

Thanks

Naturalised Irish can sign the form there is no difference between a naturalised Irish reference or a born Irish reference. You will be applying on the basis of 60 months residence because to apply under Irish spouse 3 years rule the two of you has to submit an affidavit to INIS. You can attach the custody papers this will show that you have the custody of the minor Irish citizen and strengthen the case, IMO taking one parent probably slow things down a bit but every circumstance is different. PS: naturalization application "query" not "quarry".
