It left Dundalk in March and by April was headquartered once more in Limerick with the companies (including the Light Company, now that the Light Battalions had been broken up) at various surrounding stations until June 1809 when it returned to Dublin. The Regular continued to take the volunteers: around 30 in 1809, and over 130 in 1810. Among the remaining men serving since the embodiment there was a strong desire for discharge: some of the Tyrone militiamen paid for legal advice on their claim for discharge after five years' service, which advice supported their claim. Despite having recruiting parties active across Co Tyrone the regiment was continually understrength. This was a general problem among the Irish Militia, and a new round of balloting was authorised: 11 out of 27 parishes in Co Tyrone held ballots, but those enlisted were generally volunteer substitutes paid a bounty from parish funds or by insurance schemes.

The Light Company of the Royal Tyrone Militia subsequently saw action with 1st Light Battalion at the Battles of 718:, exchanging with English and Scottish units. Almost the whole of the Royal Tyrone Fusiliers accepted this, the remainder soon agreeing rather than be called 'Black belts' (the derogatory term applied to those regiments that refused to volunteer). In April 1813 the regiment was moved from Tuam to Limerick, then to Cork in May, ready to embark for England. However, the embarkation was cancelled, and the regiment did not see service outside Ireland until 1855. In February 1814 the regiment was sent to Clonmel, with detachments scattered widely over Co Tipperary, HQ moving to 531: 642:, being stationed at Trim and Kells, and later scattered more widely over the county, only assembling for inspection in September. In October it marched to Dublin, where it was quartered in various barracks around the city. There were numerous guards and outposts to find, and the Dublin brigade was frequently paraded in marching order as practice for urgent call-outs, as well as ceremonial parades. By early 1802 a peace treaty was being negotiated and the regiment was marched back to Co Tyrone, to be quartered at 799:, enacted during a renewed period of international tension. As before, units were raised and administered on a county basis, and filled by voluntary enlistment (although conscription by means of the Militia Ballot might be used if the counties failed to meet their quotas). Training was for 56 days on enlistment, then for 21–28 days per year, during which the men received full army pay. Under the Act, Militia units could be embodied by Royal Proclamation for full-time home defence service in three circumstances: 1067: 328:, Co Tyrone, and in March the men were commended by Lt-Col Knox and their officers and by the town officials for their discipline and good conduct when they were called out to deal with the 'criminal and highly improper behaviour' of the militia of a neighbouring county.

For the first reduction, in 1822, the Earl of Caledon selected the senior sergeants who were eligible for a pension, and arranged for the younger corporals and drummers to join the new police force in the Province of Munster.
