Cheers..By the way
Got this Letter on December 13th
The applications are currently being processed with a view to establishing
whether they meet the statutory conditions for the granting of
naturalisation, such as good character and lawful residence, and will be submitted to the Minister for decision as expeditiously as possible.

Did you get this as letter or as E-mail back query..
???
thank you
seems like your is moving to second stage ..good luck

Thanks so much for your prompt reply J_Karim!

A friend of mine said it was taking up to 6 or 8 weeks for passport to be returned so i just wanted to double check to be on the safe side.

I'll put my timeline up once i receive "Acknowledgement Letter", fingers cross i'll get approval in 6-8months time, my stamp expires in Aug'17 and would hate to have to dish out extra €300 on a renewal for the sake of a few months.

I think you should be fine..

Check this out it mention in INIS website:

Return of passports after applying for citizenship by naturalisation

Updated :5 October 2016
Please allow at least 4 weeks for your passport to be returned. If you think you'll need your passport soon after you make an application (eg for travel), you should postpone your application until you return.
If you ask for your passport back before your application has finished processing, the application will be put on hold. You must then return the passport to us for processing to be completed.

N:B Please share your time after you submitted your application

Hope it helps

That's great, thanks a mill!

Hi all, i have been following this forum for the past 6 months and it's a fantastic source of info, great job from everyone involved!

Could anyone who applied for citizenship using the new form (where you have to send original passport) let me know what's your waiting time to receive it back from them.

I'll be sending my application on Friday and wanted to book holidays for March 17 but unsure as to how long it might be till i get my passport back.

Thanks so much and best of luck to those waiting on approval.

I applied October 26, 2016 and got my passport back November 7, 2016. so almost a week even though they say you should wait up to 4 weeks.

I got the same replay on 23rd December from them..I got my second stage letter on 16th November..
Well i will mail them this Friday for an update..
If i were you id be concern for my current visa status..
Did you apply for further visa EU-3 or Self retention depends on ur circumstances..
They would delay on married to EU citizens cases if they think the applicant has no updated visa or didn't submitted any application for further extension..(its just my thoughts)
Hope it make sense!!!

@ J_Karim & viratkohli1

At the beginning of November 2016, they issued me a letter stating that my application has moved to the second stage of processing. As already mentioned, just yesterday, they advised it has gone to the advanced stage.

@ J_Karim, I guess your application is already in the final stage and @ viratkohli1, your application may moved to the advanced stage within a week or so. I would suggest you to get a temporary extension as soon as possible and update them.

@ J_Karim,

I don't think anything will happen this week. Probably, from the middle of next week.

Where is viratkohli1?

To J_karim and iCloud,
Bro Here is the reply i got.look like i m still in the same place where i was in November 30th.that's so annoying.
please note that your application for naturalisation is being prepared for
submission to the Minister. If further documentation and/or clarification
of any matter related to your application is required from you, we will
write to you requesting it. Otherwise, you will receive a letter in due
course informing you of the Minister’s decision on your application.

So in two month my file didn't move.I also contact my solicitor as she said they are taking longer time for eu family.she will be contact with them in around third week of January. My gnib expires 23rd January

@ viratkohli1,

Forum has private messaging features, it only gets enabled if you have over 30 posts. So far, I can see you have only 19 posts. 11 more to go in order to get messaging features enabled.

If needed, we can have private conversation through message as me and J_Karim are doing at the minute.

As per fourm rules/terms and conditions, we are not allowed to share personal email address or phone number. If you wish to speak to us, I would suggest to cross 30 posts.

Dear Moderators,
Please correct me if I did anything wrong here.

As expected and forewarned early in this topic, it has indeed descended into a 'discussion' and 'any updates' type topic and will now be locked. Any attempt to open another topic of this nature will also be locked.

A new TIMELINE ONLY topic, with strict guidelines, has been started, link below. This forms part of the new timeline topics being rolled out across all the sub forums.
