Do you Believe Irish Civil Servants are the Stupidest on Earth?
When my daughter went to a Government office in Dublin To get a Number to take up employment and told the woman there that both her parents were born in Dublin cos she has an American accent The woman told her that she would have to get a passport
And that she would have to go back to Boston to apply for an Irish Passport, And that it did not matter where her parents were born but where she was born.....Now I ask you
The woman is perfectly right. If she was born in Ireland then she would have been given a PRSI number when her parents registered her birth. If she wasnt born in Ireland then she doesnt have one and it nothing to do with her parents she cant be given a PRSI number just because they have one. If shes a foreign birth and registered as one she needs a passport to prove it. If shes old enough to work then shes a big girl and its her own buisness to find all this out.
I should be doing something else
No, the lady was quite right, as stated above, and Ireland isn't the only country this happens in.

Guaranteed Irish!!!
you need a passport as id in a labour exchange my mother is a civil servant and that story is told to anyone just cause she did not like the answer she heard that's the policy.it makes no difference where her parents were born!!shes an adult and shes at fault for not enquiring first what was needed.this is the policy in every country as im sure it is america

public services are pretty bad in ireland your daughter situation is not uncommon
Pacito
As annoying as it is it's the new immigration laws that cause all this hassle. My 2 kids were born in Ireland though we were living abroad at the time. It used to be sufficient to have Irish born grandparents but now they have really clammed down on that. Having said that I'm sure she wasn't too helful about other alternative ways around finding a solution and that would pis* anyone off!
