I think the three year period will start to count from the date the EU Citz became irish Citiz.
senior members should correct me if im wrong.

for all of those who are saying your cover with a letter i think you need to make your point in detail as far as i know the only time your cover with letter is for the letter that is issued by GNIB granting you a visa by instructing you to go to ginib office for the stamp and card, and in a work per...

im not wrong your friends who had work permits did not received permanent residence which is valid for 10 years they may have received long term residence after 5 years they are 2 different things.

permanent residence is granted to individuals who has resided with eu citizen who's complying the regulations for a continues period of 5 year, your not applying for EU1 your entitlement to PR is based on your marriage to EU citizen with whom you apply the EU1 in the first place you can not claim th...

also note when you apply for retention you will receive a temporary stamp if your documents are in order and complete and your case is genuine and that should solve your visa expiration issue

it amuses me how you carry along with all the question about your daughter whos only 5 how she will work how she will sign like justifications are required for a 5 year old to not being economically active in state :D :D maybe you should write she buy very expensive toys so she is economically activ...

you can not apply for permanent residence you should apply for retention (divorce) then apply for PR on your own rights.
if your daughter is Irish that's 2nd reason you cant apply as her dependent.
INIS says on website you should apply for retention first before to apply for PR 3rd reason.


thanks

I think there is a little misunderstanding in my view they are not asking you to submit additional 2 different types of proof they are requesting 2 additional proof of addresses for every year this is what I understand from what you have quoted from the letter I-e same bills from esb can be used but...

applied in aug 2016 still waiting well we will all find out in next 15 days don't think they will send approvals in the last two weeks of Sept that's invitation period probably. I just hope they will send approval or announce another ceremony in December its very much possible :D and get the approva...

you need to renew your visa preferably in advance and send them updated gnib card
when did you apply what is the base on your citi app ?
work permit, green card, spouse of eu or irish citizen?

Look at the time line one guy post his friend time line he got approval on Wednesday 23/08/2017 given 10 days to pay fee Also i noted friend on mine got on 15th aug also given 10 days and one more guy here on this form got his on 01st of aug given 10 days for fee and docs i guess now it’s a normal p...

initial processing stage (stage 1)

have you already applied for pr and how long have u bn married

well their is no right answer to it except just wait for the decision if your lucky you will get sooner then later but a decision will be reached eventually. you cant fight it there is no right to citizenship also you cant fight the process because they rely on information and reports from other dep...

are you still married to her and what are you applying for?

my opinion is to withdraw your PR and keep your retention application in place for following reasons 1) permanent residence is for people who fulfil the criteria of living with the eu spouse who is excercising their eu treaty rights for a continues period of 5 years your divorce make your applicatio...

the link says the same I post above you need to get retention first and then apply for eu3

I didn't get that joke

also I read some guys on this forum got their approval while carrying a temp stamp guess their cases were strong

it says on the application form that we acquire reports from diff authorities

f.a.o grace INIS clearly states on their website that you can not apply for EU3 until your retention is approved! Also how did you got divorce in Ireland as you required a 4 year separation period and you can’t get a divorce outside Ireland if your wife is living in Ireland currently as this is her ...

two people I kno received approval both work permit on both letters it says submit fee/card photo within 10 days if want inclusion in oct ceremony also a person in this board says its approval stated the same so I think chances are slim if you don't receive anything within nexk week I guess I applie...

iamok: can you tell us ur timeline also what was ur residency based on work permit/ married to irish citizen or EUFAM?

Ali
can you advise why did you re apply EU1 for 5 years again instead of permanent residence for 10 years?

because if your spouse were exercising her eu treaty rights for 5 years then a permanent residence is better then re applying for EU1 in every way.


thanks

Malik the fact that you have a temporary visa kinda makes the difference because for what ever category of visa you have applied under I believe it is still in process and not decided yet and that limit your rights at the boarder so id say you send them bk and ask for rectification also ask them to ...
