Hi Scott
My question is : When does the spouse get the rights from the day the citizenship is granted to the husband or wife ,how does she/he upgrade her/his present category?

: Yes. An Irish citizen, by whatever route taken
: to become such, has the same rights as every
: other Irish citizen.
:
: From the government's Citizen Information
: Leaflet No 3:
:
: Naturalisation of spouses of Irish citizens
: If you are married to an Irish citizen and
: living in the island of Ireland, you may
: meet special conditions for naturalisation
: based on that marriage if:
:
: You are of full age (i.e. eighteen years or
: older, or married if younger than eighteen).
:
: You are of good character.
:
: You are married to your Irish citizen spouse
: for a period of not less than 3 years.
:
: Your marriage is recognised under the laws
: of the State as subsisting.
:
: You and your Irish citizen spouse are living
: together as husband and wife and your Irish
: spouse submits to the Minister an affidavit
: in the prescribed form to that effect.
:
: You have had immediately before the date of
: the application a period of one year’s
: continuous residence in the island of
: Ireland, and
:
: You have had, during the 4 years immediately
: preceding that period, a total residence in
: the island of Ireland amounting to 2 years.
:
: You intend in good faith to continue to
: reside in the island of Ireland after
: naturalisation and
:
: You make a declaration of fidelity to the
: nation and loyalty to the State (see below
: for the point in the process at which this
: is required).

: What about the residence permit given to non
: EU spouses of EU citizens.It exempts them
: from the requirements of work permit,does it
: apply also to spouses of irish citizens by
: naturalisation?
:
: --Previous Message--
: From what I understand (I could be wrong
: though) the three years starts from the day
: you obtained your citizenship. I found this
: very odd (I will be a citizen soon and my
: wife and I have been married for 16 years -
: she won't be a citizen for another three
: years !)

: Say I have just been granted irish
: citizenship
: by naturalisation.My wife has been staying
: with me for the past four years. Does she
: meet the requirement of three years of
: residence to apply for citizenship? or the
: three years start from the day I acquired
: citizenship?
