Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 5 March 2026
427. Deputy Michael Cahill asked the Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration to provide a paper application for naturalisation to a person who cannot use the online system (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17964/26]
View answerI can inform the Deputy that a paper application form will issue to the person concerned at that specified address.
I wish to advise the Deputy that due to the administrative nature of paper-based applications, it will take longer to process than an online digital application.
Once an application is submitted, applicants can use the Immigration Service’s Customer Service Portal to check the status of their immigration applications and raise any further related queries. They can register for, or log in to their existing account, at: www.portal.irishimmigration.ie/en/.
As an Oireachtas member, you can also request a paper application form be provided by using the Oireachtas Mail facility at: IMoireachtasmail@justice.ie.
