Hello, please any idea if attestation of marriage certificate is compulsory

Good day house pls I need advice for my family friend who is here in the UK with her husband, she needs help from us/ advice/ suggestions. The home office has written to them to leave the UK, because their student route was not successful after the hubby failed on several occasions. Before their visa expired this year January, the lady tried looking for sponsorship,unfortunately she did not get, so a lawyer adviced they apply for PSW on the ground that her hubby will repeat and pass the exams,which they quickly did, but he failed it again and home office refused the application. We are so confused now. They are now overstayers. She is trying to seek asylum. please have anybody gone through this process OR you know any one that has gone through this asylum. Some pple advised to seek asylum in Ireland. Can anybody help us with a good lawyer that can assist. She doesn't have a job now.

Going back home is not the best solution now. pls help we are confused now. Not easy on them. Thank u.

Did anyone recently apply or applied late last year

Hello everyone, please my spouse recently submitted here spouse visa application and the staffs at VFS Abuja centre didn’t collect her marriage and birth certificates, they said it’s only the photocopies they want. But it’s clearly stated on the Irish immigration site that original certificates should be submitted.
Please is this the new process now
Who submitted recently please??

Hello, I submitted mine in June this year and that was the procedure used. I was surprised because of the information on the Irish Immigrant website. However, I confirmed from two other staff at VFS that collection of coloured photocopies of original documents such as certificates, is the new procedure.

Hi Moyinnn, I applied in early June this year and I am still awaiting feedback. What about you?

To God be all the Glory! My Join Family visa has just been approved.

I submitted my application in the first week of June 2024 and received my passport on 9th January 2025. It took about 7 months.

I pray for a successful outcome for everyone who is still waiting. Remain hopeful.

Wow! Congratulations to you. I am so happy for you. Is the work permit of your sponsor a general or critical work permit

Thank you 😊. He is an Irish citizen.

Hello everyone!

Has anyone been using the online tracking system for their JFV? I initially used to get the response that my processed application has been received by the Irish Embassy. However, for some weeks now whenever I try to track online, after putting my reference number and date of birth, the response is “invalid inputs”.

I’ve tried different devices and browsers, cleared my cache, but still same response. Is anyone facing the same issue?

That man is naturally a dullard. How could you be failing always?

Thanks for the response.. Guess you are still waiting for their decision?[/quote]Not anymore. I received my visa in January 2025.

Please has anyone heard from the embassy of recent? and how long did it take before you got your visa?

Wow- submitted in December and still waiting - join family: Irish national

Hello everyone, hope we’re all doing fine. Has anyone who submitted for join family application around October / November 2024 received feedback yet?

I submitted around September and I am yet to hear from the embassy. Probably the move to the new location is delaying the process.

Oh really, they have not yet gotten to September applications. Please update the forum if you hear anything. Thanks.

It looks like a lot of processed application numbers were released this morning. Does anybody here have an update?

My wife submitted in October. Hers is not in that of today.
Is there anyone who submitted in August/September 2024 that has received an update?

Thanks for the update @PB20. It’s disheartening to hear that they probably haven’t started processing October applications yet. My wife submitted in early November, the waiting continues!

Thanks guys, kindly let’s make this page lively again, by updating any relevant information.
My spouse applied late December 2024 ( Stamp 4 holder after CSEP)….The waiting continues

Thanks @Evraunited. I agree with you that the page is kind of quiet, so let’s try and keep it a bit lively. Between yourself, myself and @PB20; we could give an update on a weekly basis, perhaps after the release of weekly decision report by the embassy. What do you think?

Yes no problem about that, will definitely update the forum if anything comes up regarding my spouse application. Thanks

I submitted in August and I am yet to see any update yet. Hopefully soon.

Today's ref number is out and nothing from my end yet, does anyone have an update?

No update for me. Wife applied october

Should we move to WhatsApp or telegram? It seems easier to get people's attention there
