Passport help

Okay so I want to send off my passport application but theres something i dont know how to answer.

In the Citizenship box, part C it says

C - Naturalisation, Foreign Birth Registration and Post Nuptial


Which one do I tick? =/

Its for an Irish Passport by the way.

Well, which are you? Were you born in England? Were you naturalized? Were your parents Brirtish citizens, but were born on foreign soil?

I'm 95% certain Ty was born in England.

I think it's Foreign Birth Registration.

I'm assuming you were born in the UK but are claiming an Irish passport 'cos of your dad's nationality. If in doubt, isn't there a phone number on the paperwork you can call?

You need Irish citizenship, I think. It's asking you how you received citizenship (naturalization process, ex. moving and taking the exam; foreign birth to Irish parents; through marriage).

Isn't there an Ireland immigration site that can answer this?

dont they normally come with a little booklet that gives you advice about each section??

or you could ask in the Post Office (im guessing thats where the application came from)

You're fifteen and filling in your own passport details?

I was born in England but my mother was born in Waterford, Ireland.

The application came from the Irish Embassy in London -.-

And the booklet is not helpful atall >.< I hate passports haha.

oh right. i guess londons kinda far to go for advice lol.

erm... id probably go with nationalisation cus if your mum was born there then youve automatically got citizenship (i think)

sorry i cant be more helpful!

I'm just surprised. Most people don't start filling in all that sort of bureaucraziness until they're like, 18, 19, 20, whatever.

Yeah, that would be naturalization then if they allow the children of parent(s) who STILL have Irish citizenship to apply for a passport. Make sure that Ireland lets children apply if only their mother has citizenship, because sometimes countries only allow children to apply if their father or both have citizenship.
