Hello, Me and my wife visited the immigration office in Portlaoise to get the outstanding visa(3 and half year),as previously they stamped my old passport for 1 and half year due to passport expiration in April 2015. I lost my passport while we were on holidays and made a new passport from Pakistan ...

My card is still valid until 29 june 2016. Do (advisors or gurus) think that I will face some obstacle in entering Ireland or renewing my card? I have no problem in submitting a new application but it will take 6 to 8 months to get a new card. Such action will stop us again temporarily to travel and...

I had the same case as you and i went to Immigration office and provided the 5 year letter what i had and they asked me the payslips of my EU spouse as she is employed, But, if you haven't been living in Ireland for over a year then you have no right to keep that stamp and should let the immigratio...

Thank you for your message. Much appreciated. I know this fact. I have a 5 year approval letter. However, I don't know if it's valid in the system. We are not residing in Ireland from last 1 year. I think 1 year and two months. Technically, my card is invalid. I am not really sure if they know this....

I will appreciate if someone can reply

Yes. She will be there. Thanks.

Try and make sure you are accompanied by your wife and this will prevent any issues. Thanks Obie. She will take EU passport lane and I will take Non-EU. I observed in this forum that many individuals encountered problems by taking EU passport lane with their spouses and ultimately GARDA argues to t...

This old stamp has no influence about your right to enter Ireland.

OK Understood. Thank you.

Thank you for your clarification. I know these facts. I was asking about the stamp "PERMITTED TO REMAIN IN IRELAND UNTIL.... MINISTER FOR JUSTICE EQUALITY & LAW REFORM". If they will ask? because they will not find it in my new passport.

Off course old stamps cannot come at a new passport. So this is what I am asking that if Dublin Airport GNIB officer ask about this stamp which I mentioned in my previous post or not. I think he or she will not ask because I will present my residence card. So I am only asking this if they can ask or...

I am not talking about EU Border Control Entry/Exit Stamps. I am talking about the stamp GNIB Dublin Office put it in my old passport "I am allowed to remain in the state until...... date". I am not cheating any system. I just asked what to do. If they ask about this stamp or they don't ca...
