So after 24 months and about 2 weeks later my naturalisation application has been approved. Not quite the 6 month wait that a new applicant would have to wait for.
| Date | Average wait time |
|---|---|
| 2009-06-21 | 23 months |
| 2010-02-28 | 24 months |
| 2011-03-08 | 26 months |
| 2011-05-11 | 25 months |
| 2012-02-06 | 23 months |
| 2012-02-23 | 24 months* |
* What I waited for, 24 whole long months.
I have a few more things left to do before it is all official, such as pay the 950 euro fee to register as a citizen. Get an Irish (EU) passport and I will be done! Post paper work, I am going to make sure I register on the voting register. Now that I can make a change, I will at least make the attempt at participating in making changes for the better for this country.
