I am advised by the Citizenship Division of my Department that correspondence dated 17 April 2023 has issued directly to the person referred to by the Deputy, regarding their application for Naturalisation.
I am deeply conscious of how important the granting of naturalisation is to those who apply for it. For a broad range of reasons, some cases will take longer than others to process. In some instances, completing the necessary checks can take a considerable period of time.
Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to my Department by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility at: INISOireachtasMail@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. The Deputy may consider using the e-mail service except in the cases where the response is, in the Deputy's view, inadequate or too long awaited.
