You see why I was thinking it was sent to Dublin

yes I understand now, they are really really slow

Is there anyway for you to know where your application is being handled?? Weda Abuja or Dublin??

I think there is no way to know. But you can contact VFS, after all they are the one that dispatched the document.

I AM HONESTLY EXHAUSTED.
THIS WAITING PERIOD IS TOO MUCH FOR ME

I ACTUALLY CRIED TODAY.
SUBMITTED SINCE 14TH OF MAY

So sorry about that. The wait isn’t easy. You could try preoccupying yourself as much as possible to make the wait more bearable. Try doing things that bring you joy and spend time with family, close friends and loved ones, it may help.

Extremely rare for applications in Nigeria to be brought to dublin for decision. The Nigeria embassy does have a VO or VOs whose job it is ro review applications.

Thats not too long ago. Dont forget its summer, we all slow down work from June to August.

Pls note there is no rush in Ireland. No pressure. Work is done at a very relaxed pace.

Don't worry, if you provided all the documents requested for. You’ll get your visa.

Olulana06:
I think we should be more concerned with Abuja Embassy instead of Dublin Embassy….

If my guess is as good as right, our documents was forwarded to Abuja Embassy

There is nothing like Dublin Embassy😁. Irish Embassy in Abuja treats all visa applications in Nigeria. Nothing comes to dublin. When you submit your application at VFS it gets sent to the embassy on a weekly schedule. When it arrives at the embassy it gets catalogued using FIFO. Depending on the volume of applications received you may get notified when your application is catalogued (thats the VFS message you get). When your application gets on the queue, it will be treated when it gets to your turn. Again, thats based on the volume of applications in your application category.

Please, if anyone has an active Ireland Study Visa WhatsApp group, kindly send me the WhatsApp link. I would really appreciate it. Thank you!

Hello
Do you think they will get faster when September approaches, because that’s when the academic session starts. Because there are still applications that were sent in June and July

When those that applied in may are yet to get a decision in august.. what about those that applied in late June… they should understand that schools will resume in September and students need this visa to resume. They are not the only country that goes for summer, we have Canada, USA, UK etc.


This isn’t about summer, they are just intentionally being slow

Yes, they will prioritise study visas.

You see it as intentional. Its not. Thats the culture. They rush nothing. There is no urgency in ireland. Its the culture

Hi guys, please I’ve been trying to open an account on isd but I’m stuck at verification for the past few days now. And now the id pal app is not allowing for a new submission.

I immediately get a response from id pal that either my image or passport is not clear and I should try again using the submission link in the email.

I’ll appreciate any help I can get.

click the active submission link in your most recent email from Immigration Service Delivery (ISD) or ID-Pal on your phone, clear your phone camera lens, ensure bright, even lighting with no shadows on your passport, and restart your device before trying again.

I am getting this message after clicking on create a new submission.

Quick question guys, has anyone recently paid Irish university tuition from Nigeria using Form A, especially through Flywire? Which bank did you use, did you pay Flywire in EUR or USD, and how long did the whole process take? I’m looking at a €10k tuition payment and Form A could save me more compared to paying directly in naira, so I’d really like to hear from anyone who has done it recently.

Rent is not pocket friendly in dublin. But you’ll get around it. Am not sure about availability. A room should be from 1,300-1,500 upward depending on the area. Thats the minimum i should think. But most people pair, so that could be split in two. Bed-space will be cheaper. Finding it is the issue.

You dont say😁…. Dont forget you are coming here. Very soon you too will learn that there is no need to rush anything in life…..Just relax.

I paid mine with over the counter transfer. I got the Euro cash , deposited it to my euro account then made the transfer from the bank to Flywire.

The speed depends on the bank. I didn’t use form A.
Cause I paid in two installments, the first went through that same day, while the second took about two weeks.
UBA. But I her Access bank is very efficient with FX transfers.
