So I think this is nearly the end of my time with you @Ireland ... it’s been a fantastic experience which I’ve thoroughly enjoyed. Apologies if the 8 hour time difference made the posting time a little different than usual!
I hope you’ve enjoyed the content, learned a little about the work of a @dfatirl diplomat & Consulate in the US & got some sense of the enormous affinity Western US has with Ireland. We are 8,000km away from Ireland & sometimes I am amazed at how much it feels like home.
All of the Irish organizations, the people to people progs, the US businesses with operations in Ireland, the Irish businesses creating jobs here, the academic links as well as the deep familial connections shorten that distance & underpin & enrich our relationship.

Today I’m going to tweet about our Consulate in #SanFrancisco. It’s the third oldest Irish Consulate in the US established in 1933 after our Consulates in New York and Boston. You can reach us on twitter & instagram @IrelandinSF.
We’re a pretty busy office! In 2017 we issued about 4,658 passport & travel documents - the 2nd highest in the US and 4th in the world. Applicants from overseas can apply for passports online: passportonline.dfa.ie but we’re still busy with renewals for children & 1st time apps
We also issue Working Holiday Auhorisations which allow recent graduates in the US to work & travel in Ireland for a 12 month period. Irish graduates can do the same in the US under the J12 prog. A lot of our younger @GlobalIrish community in #SF have arrived here on this prog.
