Technically if you quit you would either have to find a new job asap and then get a new work permit or leave the country. The green card is only for specific industries and even that requires that you have a job and a work permit of sorts - it's just slightly different. They make it sound like it's ...
Just in case people on this forum want to read up on actual details: http://debates.oireachtas.ie/DDebate.aspx?F=DAL20071107.xml&Node=H19&Page=35 - the details regarding residency/citizenship apps starts at the bottom of this page and goes on from there. http://debates.oireachtas.ie/DDebate....
Hi All, This is just to let you know that INIS will require Police Certificates from every country of residence as part of the Reisdency application requirement. These details are available as part of the Dail debates. I won't quote the entire dialogue as it is quite lengthy, but the gist of it is t...
I agree with you Alex, I think that we all spend enough time having a look on boards and discussing on boards that we could surely arrange to meet up and start putting our talk into action. I'm generally available any evening of the week and live close to town, so am easy on location.

I would say get married in the US for your own protection and sanity. Also if you are there together for a while you may be able t...

As a side note - why on earth are Americans not included in the Irish Working Holiday Visa scheme? Considering the 50 000 odd Irish-illegals in the US and the fact that 1000's of Irish students flock to the US under J-1 visas each year for what is essentially a working holiday in the US - the least...
