Count backwards from the date that you intend to apply for citizenship. You must show that you have lived in the State legally for at least 1825 or 1826 days over the last 9 years. This includes:

  • 365 days immediately before the date that you apply (or 366 days if it includes 29 February)
  • Plus 1460 days in the 8 years before the period above (plus 1 day for years that include 29 February)

On the calculator enter the dates for each of the periods of permissions granted.

You must also send us all of the required documents for each year you claim you were resident here to use as proof of residence. You should submit photocopies of each document and ensure that each document shows your name and address.

In some circumstances, we may ask you for extra documents or information to prove your residence over certain periods of time.
