Naturalisation Application- Proof of Residence for my spouse

Post by brish » Fri Mar 02, 2012 4:54 pm

Hi;
I am using this forum first time. One of my friend suggested me this forum to get advice regd my wife's naturalization application.

I am naturalized Irish Citizen from last few months. My wife arrived here on dependent visa in late 2005. Since then she was on the same visa till now. She has all 6 year valid stamps on her current passport. Now i want to apply for her irish citizenship based on spouse of Irish national (Myself).
I see following documents required in the current application form :

• Copies of 3 different proofs of residence in the State for both applicant and spouse/civil partner for 3 months prior to the date of application showing date and name and current address. Proofs include household bills (gas, electricity, phone or cable/satellite TV), bank Statements, revenue, mortgage agreement, social welfare, letter from employment, doctors letter etc.

• Evidence of residency permission i.e. a copy of your passport(s) showing residency permission stamps for a period of 1 year immediately prior to the application and 2 years in the 4 year period before that, equalling 3 years in total, or alternatively proof of residence in the State for this period. Please submit three different proofs of residence for each year showing your name and address and date of issue i.e. household bills (gas, electricity, phone or cable/satellite TV), bank statements, revenue letters, mortgage agreement, social welfare, letter from employment, doctors letter etc.

Due to some personal reason, she never worked in Ireland. Hence she is not holder of any bank account or any of utility bills. All bank accounts and utility bills are on my name only. I can put her name on my bank accounts and utility bills as joint holder now but then as per requirement i will need to wait for 3-4 months to get 3 months prior statements/bills.

She only has following docs (as far as i can think of) :
1. Her current Irish Driving Licence. (Holder from last 5 yrs)
2. Her name as named driver on my Car Insurance Policy. (named driver from last 5 yrs)
3. Her name on my company health insurance. (From last 6 yrs)
4. Her name on Rent agreements from last 5 yrs.

Can anybody suggest me if above documents are sufficient enough or do i need more (specific) documents on her name (only) ?

Any advice is much appreciated in this matter.

Thanks in advance.
