Hi guys

I sent JR letter to department through my solicitor 3 weeks and the department has negotiated the time with us. They said they ll process it within 3 months . They said that last week. Is 3 months normal or just an excuse to delay more ?

My problem with going the JR route is why do some applicants have to spend more for the same privilege as any other applicant who gets a decision within months? Time and again we have seen on this forum where applications have not been touched in years and in some cases only action is a yearly ritu...

Received FOI, it had a scanned copy of: - My application, along with all the documents I submitted - The email and letter correspondence with the department - Information on my stamp/file from GNIB - 1 garda report that was commission within a few months of receiving the application The file is rea...

Hi all

i am thinking to request for FOI just to know if they really make any effort or my file is eating dust somewhere behind. its been more than 2 years

Good idea ... go for it ..

Shelter, I think it is a positive response, to my knowledge FOI is a right, and you should get it, but I think of it in another way and positively, they mean you will no longer require your file as you will get a decision even before the specified period, they told you previously that your applicat...

If you followed correct procedure they won't reject your request. You will get an email with your file in PDF format. You have a right to obtain a copy of the record they have about you.

Hopefully ..fingers crossed
