Further to my answer to PQ 63546/25 of 17 November 2025, the person concerned was given an opportunity to provide the missing required supporting documents and this application has been deemed ineligible.

It is open to the person cited to make a new application at any time. There is no time limit within which they can make a new application, nor is there any maximum limit on the number of applications.

My Department has recently launched a new webpage to help people better understand the naturalisation application process, including the key documents required for identity and residency. The page also provides guidance on how to have documents certified. Your constituent can view it here: www.irishimmigration.ie/how-to-become-an-irish-citizen-guide/.

It should be noted that with the availability of the Customer Service Portal, queries to the Citizenship Division cannot be submitted by email and must be made through the Portal.

As an Oireachtas member, you can also request the status of individual immigration cases by e-mail, using the Oireachtas Mail facility at: IMoireachtasmail@justice.ie, which has been specifically established for this purpose. This service enables up to date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek information by way of the Parliamentary Question process.
