Hi Lety, If you are legally residing in Italy (greencard, etc), then you can move to Ireland on any visa to get married. Else, you can get married in Italy or anywhere else, and move to Ireland on a Spousal Visa. That is IF you are in Italy legally, so you will have to support that with proof /docum...
No offense meant, as your frustrations are very understandable as we are all in the same situation: one income, not being recognized, and not being treated in a way that we deserve. However, I would like to remind you that cross posting the same message in various threads is not the way to go about ...
Sorry to be sceptical, but.... do the presidencies actually have that much influence? we've gone through numerous presidencies, but so far, the terms of office have been to short to actually do something, and the general agenda has never really changed... sure, the Prague parliament may have great i...
Hi Guys, Just to close off on this thread with an answer to the question: The Irish Immigration Authorities (DoJ/INIS/GNIB) require that (as part of the EU1 application) the Non-EU Spouse has to have: 6 months legal and attested residency in an other EU state. - though, I have seen only 3 months men...
All, See below for a well-laid out document giving just the information one needs when one comes to Ireland... all rights easily explained by criteria! Many thanks to Runie for providing the info! some more info to read http://www.immigrantcouncil.ie/family-matters.htm Internal document from emigran...
Make this a sticky! well-laid out document giving just the information one needs when one comes to Ireland... all rights easily explained by criteria!

Hi Runie, Sorry to dampen the mood with this post, but I fail to see the relevance? The status of the EU person is never argued by GNIB/INIS/DoJELR, it is the status of the non-EU spouse that is the issue. If anything, I'd base any appeal to deportation on the Irish constitution, article 41, which e...
well... dont' want to get off topic.. but Ireland was one of the first countries to accept workers from the accession states.. this influx of people has caused a lot more problems than the few hundred non-EU spouses. (not those people are the problem, but the fact that the government accepted more p...
how about protest march and picketing... from Dail to GNIB? make sure you wave the flag for your country, I'd say.
this situation is absolutely disgraceful, especially since Bertie Ahern has the audacity to be begging the US every St Patrick's Day for legalised status of illegal Irish immigrants!
Hi bananaman, I'd like to draw your attention to my post on (http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=18494). I checked the constitution too, and found the following scenarios to be in effect: (regarding article 41 of the constitution) 1- EU person stays in IE (exercising EU movement rights)...
one might argue that the issuance of deportation order of the non-EU spouse is unconstitutional, as it forces the EU party to leave the state. Not only is THAT point against EU community law, but also, to exercise one's rights to remain (for the EU spouse) would be in contrast with the Irish constit...
Personally, this no longer affects myself, as my wife was granted stamp 4 for 2 years, however, I would like to coin the idea of a protesting this in the media.... I'd be up to join a protest march myself.. Any other ideas? Has anyone received anything in the post about this yet? I would imagine new...
Hi miel, seems that, providing your husband has lived legally in the EU for a period of 6 months (provision 3(2) of the EC directive governing immigration), your husband is perfectly entitled to residence and stamp 4 (no work permit required) in Ireland. Application through EU1 should be complete in...
Hi miel, Can you provide some more details? there are several ways to go about it, the best way depends on your situation. 1- what nationalities do you both have? 2- what EU country does your husband have residence in? also.. do you have official documentation to show this? you'll be needing it! 3- ...
All, This will be our last post for a while, since we got a 'slightly positive' letter from INIS... it might be helpful for some of you if we tell you how we went through the process: details: (M) Dutch, living in Ireland (and employed) since 1999 (F) Russian, came over in November 2006 -Married aft...
EVERBODY!!!!!!!!!!! i have a good news..... I spoke to solvit crowed, they saying DoJ are in process of changing decision letters following the court rulling........and will issue new letters shortly!!!!!! looks like everybody will get a positive letter this time!! Hi stmani, many thanks for that.....
Hi Limey, If I were you, I'd get started on packing bags and moving to Ireland.... legally, there is no reason that your wife should be denied residence here (and following that, no re-entry visa requirements). But, definately take that advise and submit documentation showing that your wife has live...
Hi Plaasjapie, Useful information, would you mind telling us where you got this from? was this from Signpost service? We want to get a PPS number, but so far have only been told that you need your residence processed for that... this at least is one more piece of artillerie that can be used to get a...
Hi Limey, We did complain, and quite frankly, we are running out of trees to bark up to..... As for formal complaints, these were lodged with our TD and with INIS, copying various organizations (Dept of Taoiseach, DoJ, Government Ombudsman, EU Commission, Immigrant Rights Centre, etc). So far our co...
Ok, Signpost service does not do much good, however, if you feel the need to rant at someone... then they do certainly provide a listening ear... The experience is like writing to a very disinterested though listening obudsman. Here's a reply to our letter. The letter addressed INIS lack of action i...
Hi All, We are still awaiting decision in our case, however, expecting a rejection of our EU1 application, we would like to know if there are any other persons who have tried to het a reentry visa for Ireland (after having been rejected)... and how this would work. We currently have an (expired and ...
