    There's a big thread of this in Clearasil and Hormones. :)

    But yeah it can take up to 8 weeks sometimes, depends on the back-lag really.

    It seems a vary a lot between different Garda stations. I live on the Mayo/Roscommon border and the guards on the Mayo side managed to get mine back to me in two weeks but my Rossie friends had to wait at least five or six weeks.

    I'm seriously hoping for mine to take only 2 weeks. I'm 19 - it's embarrassing not to be able to go out anymore.
    (I lost my passport)

    2 months if your lucky. they take forever to come. and some stations let them build up and send them off in bulk. mine took nearly 10 weeks and one of the lads got his the same day but only waited 3 weeks. they were both send to the same station so they obviously didnt send mine off till they had a good few in there

    Mine took 4 weeks but I sent my off before the big snow storms and christmas. It would have probably come earlier if the snow storm didn't happen.

    Probably is. They just tell everyone to go to the library to get one for some reason.

    I think I can get one somewhere else and just get them to send it off or something.

    do you mean the form like? it must be signed by a garda and you must sign it infront of him too. he must also check your birth cert like so they cant refuse you a garda id surely
