Folks,
Do you think that the citizenship department is holding the approvals and they will send them over after finishing June ceremony?

[pukon_check]

Usually approval rolls before ceremony..
They send approval very rare if you are not meant attend the current ceremony..
Cheers

@Mal111
Applied in August 2016 and still waiting for the approval.

Has anyone you know received an approval letter recently?
Please keep us informed about such information cuz I think that it is the time for INIS to start sending approval letters

This should not happen. Has there been any explanation from the relevant department regarding the delays for the approvals?

No, not at all. every time I contact them they keep saying that the application under process and they will contact me in due course.

[Alixlboy]

I feel sorry for you and others.

I think you those of you who are family members of the EU citizens, should all make a complaint using the below link that I found on the SolvitIreland website.

Quote:
The next option available for applicants is to submit a formal complaint to the European Commission in relation to the Irish authority's inability to meet the terms of the Directive and issue visas for qualifying family members under the accelerated process. Please follow the link below:

http://ec.europa.eu/atwork/applying-eu- ... int_en.htm

This might speed up the process of approval for you.

I think that you should contact them after they start sending the approvals for the next ceremony. They should disclose more information about your application at that time and they should tell if you will be invited to the ceremony or not.

Yeah, that's why I was asking here. For the time being, I don't know anyone who received approval. correct me if I'm wrong.
Thanks.

Yes, I think that no one has received his approval yet. I've applied in August 2016 and progressed to second stage since Feb 2017 and still no approval. I am expecting that approvals should be rolled out next week or first week of August.

[Syjem]

Folks,
Any new update from INIS about the new approvals?
Did anyone receive his approval for the next ceremony?
has anyone contacted them recently about his application? what was the outcome?

[September]

Maybe they are on summer holidays.
