I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the person concerned, who currently has permission to reside in the State until 24 January 2020, has submitted an application for a certificate of naturalisation. In this regard a letter has issued requesting the person concerned to submit the prescribed certification fee and other documents. When the fee and documentation are received, an invitation will be issued to attend a citizenship ceremony, at which the person concerned will make a declaration of fidelity to the Irish Nation and loyalty to the State and receive his certificate of naturalisation.

Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to INIS by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility 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 Questions process. The Deputy may consider using the e-mail service except in cases where the response from INIS is, in the Deputy’s view, inadequate or too long awaited.
