Hi, I am in a bit of a situation well to be fair my wife is.
My wife who holds a British passport that was issued this year (no visa) and became an Australian citizen last year is currently back in Ireland with our 14 month old visiting family.
When she departed a few days ago customs advised her she should be traveling on an Australian passport which she does not have. He said it would be difficult to clear customs upon her return. Difficult to get an Australian passport for whilst over there and expensive.
Wondering if anyone has some experience or advice. I was thinking if I send her her original Australian citizenship certificate would that suffice. My 14 mth old daughter has an Australian passport. Called Dep immigration they were unbelievably unhelpful (have you read the website, here let me read a section to you).
She leaves Ireland on the 9th sep. and help would be greatly appreciated. I know it was a silly oversight. Currently sitting on the couch with our 10 & 8 yr olds.
Thanks
