Can a Russian woman, with an Irish citizen child, (now living in Russia) receive Irish citizenship?
No. There is no entitlement for her to become an Irish citizen on the basis of her child’s citizenship. My girlfriend and I are both Chinese citizens. We have been working in Ireland since early 2003 under the working visa scheme, and we had a baby boy late in 2006. Is the baby entitled to Irish citizenship? Yes. As you have been legally resident in Ireland for three of the four years prior to the birth of your child, you will be considered to have had a genuine link to Ireland, and the baby will be entitled to Irish citizenship. I am Indian, and have been living and working in Wexford on a series of work permits for the last 4 years. When I will be eligible to apply for naturalisation? When you have lived in the State for a total of 5 out of the last 9 years, including the last full year before the date of application, you will be eligible to apply for naturalisation. Can I become an Irish citizen through naturalisation after 2 years here as a language school student? I am Chinese. No
