I’ve read the FAQs etc on this point.
My application for citizenship by marriage to an Irish citizen was submitted in October 2024 - no progress until a better passport copy was requested in May 2025 - just last week I was informed that it would proceed to eVetting and I completed the ISD online form.
This took longer than expected because it is really difficult to get a PDF image of a passport under 1Mb - then when I uploaded it the preview pane shows blank.
Today I have received an e-mail to the effect that this will now be processed and sent to the Gardaí. The e-mail also suggested that it might take up to 8 weeks to be provided with the form by the Gardaí.
This seems to me to be much slower than is being reported on the timelines that people have disclosed. Is there known to be a particular log-jam at present?
