naturalization questions

Post by yearofsnake » Sun Mar 31, 2013 6:50 am

Hello,everyone. If there were no social welfare has been cliam and did not work (no tax is paid) since i came to this country on 1997, will that affect applyig citizenship? I was 16 when i came to Ireland and spend two years in boarding school, after that i study in a language school and college for four year but never work becoz my boyfriend was backing me , then we got married on 2005 so that i grant spouse visa (stamp 3 ,not allow to work),my husband got his citizenship on 2009 so i convert my stamp3 to stamp4 on 2010, and we got divorced on 2012 Dec, but before divorced i was already working in a hotel for five months long, then quit it on Jan 2013, so basically i only paid five months tax to revenue office, i am worry if this wiil affect the decision from minister to grant me the citizenshio or not? Thanks very much!! :cry:

The outcome your application for naturalization while not working and claiming social benefits is at the discretion of the MoJ. He has waved this condition for several applicants (one of which is my wife) since he resumed office provided you can show you are actively looking for work during your time of claiming these benefits.
One thing I can suggest is,whilst seeking employment as you normally do,also try to apply for jobs online via job websites. This way you can easily get confirmations for your applications. Keep a record of this as well as the responses (via email) you get from employers regarding your applications. It worked for my wife.
