Next Document: 6) Which Irish embassy or consulate should I contact? See reader questions & answers on this topic! - Help others by sharing your knowledge No, you can't get citizenship from a great-grandparent like that. You get citizenship from your parent at the time of your birth (see the Nationality and Citizenship Act,section six, subsection two). If your parent was not an Irish citizen when you were born, you cannot get citizenship from him or her later. (Obviously, this doesn't stop you from getting citizenship if you are entitled to it for some other reason.) I emphasize: none of what is said here about citizenship is legal advice. I could be wrong. Read the Act yourself, but if you want legal advice for your situation you will most likely have to pay a lawyer.
