[Puckoon]

So you have decided they are not good enough, while he has decided that they are?  I tell you what - show them to me and illdecide.

Lads,

My mate has an Irish passport which he has just doscovered has expired.


He's booked to go to USA in about 10 days or so.

Can he still go to passport office in Dublin and get it renewed there and then ?



Thanks for your help.

In short...no.  But he should contact the PO immediately to discuss his options.

Thanks for that. Doesn't sound good for him then.

I do wonder about people at times, has he been aware of the recent shite over passports at all??

Clearly not.

I've told him to contact the Passport office or just go down and sit and hope for the best - It's all he can do I suppose.

Can he not swear allegiance to the Queen and get a Brit one

if he is in the North, take his ticket to the passport office in Belfast and he will have a much better chance of getting a passport there

They won't do it for a new passport application - there has to be an interview etc  - he's always had Irish passport.

he may be in luck

My mate got in touch today and has been informed of a partial resolution to the dispute which should see emergency applications dealt with within 48 hours

Do you reckon you would have to prove you were travelling?
I don't need my passport till september,but my application as been sent nearly 7 weeks now,I was gonna ring and say I have a funeral to go to or something.
I know its wrong but I am half worried I still won't have it come September

[David McKeown]

Yeah you would have to a flight confirmation if it's anything like the last time I made an emergency application.
