Saw a post online with a reply from citizenshipinfo that "all ceremony invites arw issued".

Most likely, unless you were invited, you'd need tow ait till December or something.

Same here

The wait begins for the December ceremony dates to be confirmed!
2-5 December the Convention Centre Dublin is already booked for something else.
9-11 are the only dates in December that the Killarney Convention Centre doesn't have anything on their schedule.

So 9-11 December in either Dublin or Killarney perhaps?

I think the European Cell and Gene Therapy Congress will take place at The Convention Centre Dublin (The CCD) from Monday 02 to Thursday 05 December 2024.

Be careful when applying for you passport.

Those of us who were naturalised last June were - wrongly - instructed that as long as we sent a national passport, ONE in-date government-issued ID would suffice.

Turned out the wording of the emails had not been updated to reflect the fact that the naturalisation certs no longer have a photo and that, as a result, the Passport Service now requires TWO forms of ID.

Having to submit a second ID set us all back weeks.

Sorry, This is wrong. I sent only one document Id and got passport in one month. PPS was the document. Not even a certified one.

[Helen1964]

OK, Leo, I stand corrected.
Quite a few of us were asked for a 2nd photo ID, welll into the passport application process.

I really don't know why tbh. Did you gave them a pps? If am correct they really want pps. Perhaps they need to update on the site, that multiple documents should be sent with application so that application won't be delayed.

[Helen1964]

I sent them an original UK passport. I really thought that would be enough. We don't live in the ROI so we don't have PPS cards.
Someone on the other thread did speak to a customer service agent who apparently said they had in fact neglected to update the standard wording in the original emails, which should have asked for 2 IDs from the outset.
But the fact you were able to submit only one sort of contradicts this.
Oh well. Our passport has finally been despatched so it's a huge relief.
Am very grateful to everyone on this forum.
