Applied via EU3 on May 16 ( the date stamped on the confirmation receipt ) , and the application was granted on November 30 . Our passports were sent back soon after we requested them - a request I was told to make via fax . Always found the staff at Dept. Justice helpful , although I was not happy ...
Remember now . It is a 5 year residency extension - permission to remain . See section 7 . Slightly dubious about the 4 weeks in Limerick claim , but the person who informed me of this is usually correct . http://www.justice.ie/80256E01003A21A5/ ... ission.pdf
Apparently , yes . I have heard of people who applied for long-term residency(can't remember the technical term) after being in Ireland for 5 years on work permits ; took about 3-4 weeks to attain in Limerick area .
Form EU 1 states : 'This form is to be completed by each family member of a European Union , EEA , or Swiss citizen who is not a national of a Member State and who intends to be resident in Ireland for more than three months.'

The consolation is that this is only a one-off application as it provides for permanent residency (assuming it is awarded). How long does EU 1 provide residence for ? 1 year ? Will you need to re-apply annually ?...
Someone residing in Ireland for 5 years via work permits can apply for permission to remain , and be awarded long-term residency status (a 5 year stamp i believe ) . http://www.justice.ie/80256E01003A21A5/vWeb/flJUSQ5YUK7K-en/$File/Permission.pdf Or , you can obtain a residency card via form EU1 .

Spouses of EU citizens have a right to work in Ireland without a work permit . My wife - nonEU - was working within a month of entering Ireland . However , you may now need to apply to the Dept. of Justice for for a residency card , which can take up to 6 months to receive , and they will keep your ...
My wife aplied in February and was told this . Pissed off we contacted someone else who had recently applied and she said that she was also told this .
Once your application has been lodged and acknowledged , you will then have to wait a further 2 years before your application for naturalisation is either allowed or denied .
