I did that for my de-facto partner. You simply do a renewal of Stamp 4 online. Just upload her original permission letter if she has one, upload your naturalisation certificate or passport, and put in a one-sentence explanation in the application that you have been naturalised and therefore wants he...
The Minister clarified previously that if you were issued with a permission letter that indicates you have been granted permission immediately, your start date can be the letter issuance date, subjective to you getting an IRP card eventually. There shouldn’t be too much of a difference between the t...
No. The only purpose of submitting your current passport is to verify your identity. The passport team belongs to DFA, which has nothing to do with INIS. Ireland is one of the few countries which allow you to use your foreign passport to enter and leave the state. They even have a dedicated Stamp 6 ...
You pay 500 euro for a successful LTR application and it will be valid for the rest of your life (assuming you have regular income, you are not a burden to the state and you have not committed any serious crime). You then pay 300 euro for a successful IRP registration - this should be valid for 5 ye...
1. IRP is not required since they have your data in their system. You are free to provide a copy of them though. 2. They definitely require a certified copy of your birth certificate. Your application will be rejected straightaway if you do not provide a certified copy of your birth certificate. 3. ...
I applied on the day of my fifth anniversary even though it was a Saturday and had to pay a solicitor the weekend rate to get the documents stamped and signed :D My application was approved in around 8 - 9 months. Unlike countries like Switzerland where the whole thing is up to how integrated you ar...
As a general consensus - 90 days. Special arrangements are available for people who have permission letters under the likes of IIP and EUTR, but for most other categories it's 90 days. I'll quote the correspondence I received from Burgh Quay a few years ago. Generally, a residency permit holder is p...
Yeah just get a re-entry visa. In fact I would say just apply for it now. Even if you get a naturalisation certificate tomorrow, it may still be too late to get an Irish passport in time. If you don’t live in Dublin, send a paper application in by post. Remember to include proof of flights and proof...
normal standard post in a brown envelope , similar to the first acknowledgement letter that you received after submitting the citizenship application. Hi all I have received a letter from justice department,the language is bit confusing It says This letter doesn't constitute grant of Naturalisation...
Usually the minister will grant you 3-4 months of extension of Stamp 1 from the date of your termination. You can work without an EP during this period but you are expected to have your new EP ready by the end of this extension. Note that applying for a new EP, especially when the existing EP is sti...
Burglary is a very serious contradiction to the requirement of being a person of good character. For any visa-required nationals, such criminal record will have been sufficient to prevent them from entering Ireland in the first place, leaving alone giving them an Irish citizenship. As others have sa...
This comes as a bit of shock to me to be very honest. I heard from my missus's friend who got naturalised recently partially based on 3 years of Stamp 1A. In my mind Stamp 1A is a student permission. It counts towards the 7-year limit on student permissions, and once a Stamp 1A holder becomes a cert...
My father was born in Scotland to Irish parents and has not registered on the FBR. Where were your father’s parents born? If at least one of them was born on the island of Ireland, your father cannot register for FBR and does not need to do so, as he is automatically an Irish national by descent. Y...
*You do not pass through immigration control when you are on Airside transit* Gosh how uneducated are you? Can’t believe I’m wasting time on educating the basics. There is no concept of airside transit from the UK to Ireland. That is never a thing since year 1923. I can’t believe I need to do an el...
If you really clicked on the link and selected Ireland as the transit destination, it’s not easy to miss this mandatory requirement: You must also have an Irish biometric visa (marked ‘BC’ or ‘BC BIVS’ in the ‘Remarks’ section) and an onward flight ticket to the Republic of Ireland. As I said, trans...
Anyone who transits in any UK airport to an Irish airport must always pass through UK border control. This is because flights from the UK to Ireland are treated as domestic flights and passengers must first be admitted into the UK before they can take such domestic flights. TWOV landside is allowed ...
Ireland does not scan anyone’s passport when they fly away. The airlines are responsible for maintaining an accurate list of passengers who have boarded a plane and informing the government of the list.
Stamp 6 is not a visa. It’s a stamp in the passport that is not recognised by airlines. The correct process would be to first apply for a Stamp 6, and then apply for a Re-entry visa, both of which are free. You have plenty of time to do both if your trip is in January. Do not apply for a new IRP car...
Yeah deducting application fee from your salary is expressly prohibited and is against the employment legislations. I would think twice about working there. There is no such thing as which job title would be prioritised over another one. It was the case during COVID for certain healthcare related pr...
Each state has their own notary system and licensing system, so you can’t just say I have a lawyer in Hawaii that can prove my address in New York is genuine. Of course you can declare under oath it is true, but if it turns out to be wrong, nobody can do anything in either state. Use your Boston add...
We just invited a dozen Indian contractors to come to Ireland for a conference next week. The applications were filed 3 weeks ago and everyone received their visas today.
