From US. OK, do you have Irish relatives ? In other words, do you have either Parent or Grand Parent that was born in Ireland ? If so, you will need to get their documents and apply for Irish citizenship. If you do not, I would suggest you forget about Ireland. At the moment in order to immigrate, you will need a verifiable annual income of 50,000 Euro ( $54000 US) This may be reduced if legislation passes to 35,000 Euro. If you need work, to get that income I do not believe you qualify. Your age is the least of your problems.

I say again for the umpteenth time I am astounded at the difficulties US citizens have in living in Ireland. I would have thought with the history of Ireland and America, that US citizens would have been welcomed with open arms. It is a total mystery to me.

Logically, no denocratic government can give preferential treatment to a certain country or ethnic group...that's discrimination!!!! Some people in Ireland want Irish illegals in the U.S. to get preferential treatment. Democratic principles must prevail!!

Flower Fairy: It doesn't matter how many times you have said you don't understand why US citizens have a problem moving to Ireland. Every country these days have quotas as to how many immigrants they can let in. In order to protect the existing citizens from paying for new people, they must have some rules for financial stability of new immigrants so they don't end up on social welfare. Years ago when my Mother's whole family immigrated to US, the US did not have Visas or quotas. At that time (1927) the US needed immigrants. The US had no medical or pension benefits at that time. BUT, Ireland did not have enough jobs for my Mother's siblings so my Grandfather, who was the Brew Master at Beamish Brewery in Cork, a really great job, decided he needed to go to the US so his children could succeed in life. They all did. My Mother died in 2010 after 97 years of good living and all her Children also have successful lives, including me. Right now the US has quotas for permanent immigration. I don't know what that number is for Irish trying to go to US. Yes, the US also has a way to buy your way in, but the price is quite high I understand. I think Ireland is trying to make sure those that do come from any country, that are not Citizens By Birth to an Irish born close relative, will have enough outside income to insure they can afford to live in Ireland without imposing on the residents that have legally lived, worked and paid taxes over the years in Ireland. My Father arrived in US from Norway in 1923. He got off the ship in Boston and the US government did not know he was here until he started having Social Security taxes taken from his paycheck in 1935 when SS was started. He missed the census in 1930 as far as I know. That was then, and now it is different in most countries. Yes, Irish people became a major influence on the development of the US, But Ireland is so very small compared to the US , they need to regulate the number coming in and I suppose dictating a minimum outside income is one way to do it.

You can get a passport and become a citizen but you need to get all the documents. For a grandparent it is sometimes a challenge. Irish government records are available but as I recall you either have to go there and pay for time in the files or hire someone to do it for you. The government will not look documents up for you. As I said, one must pay for the hours or days you use to get your documents, and I am sure there is a copy charge too. But you need to look at the website of the Irish Consular General in Chicago which covers Ohio. They will tell you what documents you need. Do Not expect to just arrive at Dublin Airport and be able to ask for a passport. You really need to get your Birth registered with the Chicago Office and then ask for a passport, After that you can start worrying about work and age. If you get the passport you could have an income of $15 or 20K and they will not stop you from moving in, Mind you I didn't say you could live on those amounts. When a EU citizen arrives in Dublin, you hand the Passport control officer your Irish passport in the EU only line, He / she looks at it and looks at you, and if you look the same as the picture they hand it back and you are in. No stamping, no nothing. You just arrived HOME as far as they are concerned.

Get your citizenship thru the FBR after you get all the proper documents, to find out which documents are needed go to the FBR site or Citizenship by Descent. If you have one of your grandparents DOB county born ,county and date if married in Ireland for marriage certificate ,then date of death and place if deceased . Everything is pretty basic to follow. Make sure you get long form certified copies, once you register and get citizenship you are entitled. To get a passport .As a citizen of Ireland you will be have one foot in the door so to speak. If you have the above info on your grandparents don't pay someone a large sum of money to do what you can do with just the cost of the documents and the price of postage . Good Luck !!!
