HOPE is what keeps us alive .... God willing soon we all will be Irish , till then keeping waiting with spark of hope in your heartCalvinKlien wrote:If we look back on the previous ceremonies, DOJ started sending letters very quickly, but this time there seems a delay OR may be it's us because we are waiting to be invited....
Anyway, we should be thinking positive....There is a thing called PMA (Positive Mental Attitude)
Happy Friday anyway...Hopefully we will say to each other one day....Happy Irish Citizenship Day....

1. The last letters of approval seemed to go up to the second week of March (it looks like March 11 on the timeline tracker).
As a footnote the application changed on the 15th of March. All applicants from this date had to send in their passport photos with the application. So, it is very possible that they will not need as much turnaround time for the approvals and next ceremony.
2. The last set seem to have been sent on September 16th with the 21st of October as the ceremony. So it has been nearly two months since any new approvals have been sent out.
3. The one post saying they have been sent out seems to be untrue as someone from this site should have received something and there are a number of users on this site who would be in the time frame as well. (I applied the following week after the new app and haven't heard anything back yet approval wise). There are external sites as well with nothing on them either.
This would indicate, to me at least, that for there to be another ceremony they will need to send out these new batches to make up the numbers.
I would say realistically if there will be a ceremony this year in December that they would have to arrive Monday/Tuesday next week. It would be pushing it to have the ceremony beyond the second week of December because of the holiday season etc.
Fingers crossed that they do arrive Monday/Tuesday.
I will agree with you about patience. However you have made some generalisations in your post which are not true. I would like for you to find me doubting you. You can look but won't find.nice and smooth wrote:DKD wrote:Ill just give a few insights from what I have seen.

Well well well just because you or anyone on this forum hasn't gotten their citizenship does not mean its not been sent out. I was the first to disclose the date for the october ceremony almost 7 weeks before the date and people like you doubted me, some even said the date had to be wrong because it was much too early to know the date.
Not i have people who i know personally that got letters of approvals last week and you come to the hasty conclusion that it has to be false. The total time i spent waiting on my approval was five years and eight months (5yrs 8months), and during this period i wrote over 100 letters to them that i almost know them on a first name basis and they routinely called my mobile phone to give me update and when i was finally approved they called me to tell me even before i got the letter. I don't have any business with them anymore but i still give advice and make posts here just because i don't want anyone to have to go through what i went through. I suggest you calm down and be patient. It will come when it gets to your turn. Finally stop being a doubting Thomas.
