Written answers

The citizenship application from the person referred to by the Deputy was received on 7 February 2020. This application is being processed under the temporary statutory declaration process that I announced in January. The citizenship certificate fee was paid online on 30 November 2021, and the signed statutory declaration was received by my Department by post on 3 December 2021.

As advised to all applicants when submitting their documents, it will take up to six weeks from receipt of the fee and statutory declaration to issue a certificate of naturalisation. This is due to current limits on staff attendance in the office due to Covid -19 restrictions.
