      Only Irish citizens can apply for an Irish passport. Does Aontu require someone to self-certify as a.moron when they want be a candidate?

    2. That’s a whole lot of words for fuck all being said. Sprinkle in a fantasy where some people are framing a passport. At the end of the day, if you’re entitled to an Irish passport, why wouldn’t you avail of one?

      While I’m here, I have to give the passport office a lot of credit. I applied for an Irish renewal in the US last year. I applied on Thursday, had the new passport in my hand on Tuesday. It’s an incredible service, probably one of the most efficient.

      Irish nationality law allows for citizenship to go multiple back generations via the foreign births register. He’s referring to those individuals.

      As of current laws, if each generation registers their birth before the next generation is born, then Irish citizenship can be passed from parent to child.

      Irish citizenship can be passed down generations indefinitely.

      So for example: You move to Australia now as an Irish citizen. Your grandchildren register on the FBR, they then register their children and they register their children and on and on, so Irish citizenship is granted forever to all future generations.

      Ah yes, I forgot we have two tiers of Irish citizen:

      “Preferred”
      “American”

    5. A moronic ignorant take there

      Not all FBR successful applicants actually go on to apply for a passport

      As said kudos to the passport office for the incredibly quick turnaround for renewals. I know how easy it is to process but still hats off

      If only the same could be said for FBRs

    6. We need to reform the citizenship laws so that only the children of citizens (born in ireland and lived at least half their life here, or currently living on the island) can apply. Way too many British and Americans have irish citizenship just so they can grab an EU passport.

    7. The Irish passport service should be a neutral, apolitcal body and should treat all applicants equally, without regard for their background, and any TD who disagrees and thinks they should engage in any sort of discrimination, should be removed from office and excluded from holding any future public office

      The kinds of Americans applying for Irish passports right now are trying to escape the United States, not bring US detritus to Ireland. Braindead idea to put the Americans at the bottom, they’re the ones with the strongest argument to seek dual citizenship

    9. Based off of my last experience with the passport service, they should be running the fecking country. They seriously have their shit together.

      When I saw that headline, I was sure it’d be one of the lefty T.Ds. You think ya know someone.

      There really should be free immigration between US and Ireland citizens

      Such noble, wise, and carefully considered suggestions are obviously why this man was elected to the position he is in and are clearly indicative of the qualities that abound in the body politic of our nation. The Island of Saints and Scholars indeed!

      What an odd thing to devote your time to and attention to bringing up. 

      Sick of random TDs just coming out with utter nonsense
