I haven't, and don't have the time, to think what someone's surname might be. Help me out though, if you will.

So she must have a National Insurance number in the UK. How do adopted children get a Passport?

Surname given, narrowed down to 39 people, with 3 other names popping up time after time. Something wrong on the council end as its now crashed.
Electoral register, from her local council, and check how far back they have her listed.

It's frustrating. Surely without any of that she should have citizenship for the number of years she has been in the country.
How to get beyond dealing with the frontline 'computer says no' system is the problem. As said previously, it looks like you need to go to your nearest office to sort this out.

Assuming Roman Catholic for this part. Many complete Parish records were lost, when they centralised the system. I've a relative with two birth certificates, different dates and another that was amongst those who's records were lost. Meaning their birth never happened.

The Irish census and other records were held in Dublin and destroyed during the rebellion in 1912, but presumably her mother was born after that.

They are in some places still held at parish level, official copy, with additional copies held by the state.

Church records were kept at Parish level though.

My son's passport expires in Dec, and he's eligible for an Irish one through me, so I'm thinking the same thing. But I'm taking him to Dubai in Feb, and I'm not sure I want to be travelling on a different passport to him, as I'm on a UK passport.

Can you get your parish priest and a member of your local police to sign it though?

I take after my mum!
]My dad was a Bernard and he was very 'manly' ... He got a silver medal in a British schoolboy boxing championship, challenged a group of Nazi bullies to a fight in prewar Germany, defused huge bombs and cleared minefields in WWIII, ignored death threats from an IRA supporter who he chucked out for organising a collection in his dad's pub, and once used a crowbar to lever his foot off a rusty 6 inch nail which went through it in an accident on a building site ...@Drago's real name is Bernard!given he's about 3 trees tall, powerlifts and drives a giant pick-up/4x4.

It is different in Britain, in fact it is easier than getting an UK application signed, no need for the witness to have known the applicant personally for two years.

@User - could she get an Irish passport instead? My kids have that one rather than a British passport. An interview together with her school certificates / evidence may help to prove she's been here since being very young.
@Drago's real name is Bernard!
@Drago's identity is at last revealed
