Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 May 2019
46. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade when a foreign birth registration application by a person (details supplied) will be processed and original supporting documentation returned; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22557/19]
Amharc ar fhreagraForeign Births Registration, by its nature, can be a detailed and complex process, often involving official documentation related to three generations and issued by several jurisdictions. Due to the complex nature of Foreign Births Registration, it takes on average between 6 to 12 months to process an application.
With regard to the specific application the Deputy has inquired about, I can confirm that the application in question has been received. A member of the Foreign Births Registration Team will contact the applicant directly if any further documents or clarifications are required to process the application.
