if the section had less calls, they could reduce the number of dedicated personnel answering helpline calls and transfer them to processing which would be much handier than just answering the same queries time and time again, especially when the applicant already knows that his applications need a r...
minors under the age of 16 do not get GNIB numbers, therefore, I would suggest to keep that empty. the section will probably enter your own GNIB number with the application as you are the parent applying on your child's behalf
Sorry to tell you the bad news, but stamp 1A does not count towards long term residency (stamp 4 for 5 years) if that was the one you were refering to...
1. passports are returned by reg post 2. stamp is valid till the expiry of your passport. once you renew your passport, you would request a renewal of your WCATT stamp in your new passport. 3. i guess you are allowed to work without a work permit 4. no benefit to your spouse what so ever. she contin...
HSE, general Immigration helpline option 3 and 5 maybe busy due to odd queries that they get. Even if there is one person in front of you on the line it can take ages until they get all the answers to their questions. they are dealing with all temp reg doctors, de facto relationships, dependants, WC...
from what I gather, they are roughly doing month in a month. But of course that can vary depending on the number of applications in that particular month and the number of staff that are processing those applications. According to the last governmental measures the number of civil servants has been ...
time spent on business permission does not count towards LTR. only time spent on work permits, work authorisation and working visa count towards LTR. LTR is an administrative scheme, they are allowed to change the rules as they go. But the business permission was never counted for LTR.
the grant letter of LTr states that you are granted stamp 4 for 5 years and you are allowed to work without the need of work permit, and start business without the need of permission from the minister. if you are granted stamp 4 for LTR you can work for the same company, move the company or start yo...
Ireland Hopeful, children's applications are processed in a different queue, faster than normal applications. I guess there would be not need any outside agencies. The fee for approval for children is 200e. Not sure how long it takes for the complete process though.
rustig, did at any point it occur to you, that the more time citizenship staff has to spend answering your stupid letters, the less time they actually have for the actual processing of your and other files? if it was me, I would just ignore your subsequent letter as you received your first acknowled...
there is a chance that citizenship would count your time in the state since your arrivala s a minor. in that case you could probably apply after having 5 years in the country. But i am not 100% sure on that. maybe somebody else will be able to coment on that more. you would definately not qualify fo...
Hi, the fee was increased last year from around 635e to 950e. I don't think so they can increase any more any time soon. last time it was increased because the fee didn't change for the last 8 years or so. before there was a discount for the naturalised spouse based on the idea, that one full fee wa...
realgunner, on what basis does your father have stamp 4? if your father received irish citizenship, you could get stamp 4 as a dependant of an irish national. you do not qualify for long term residency, if that's what you meant about waiting for 2 years.
By the way, what if she came here not as a tourist, but as a fiancee to visit her irish future husband. She would get a stamp in her passport for 3 months initially. At the expiry of her permission to remain you could go together to your local immigration officer and ask for an extension of that per...
Hi, You may want to contact citizens information centre and ask them in relation to ante natal care. There may be a rule that a person availing of the free ante-natal and no hospital charges must be resident in the State for a certain period of time. I know of some people who were told they had to p...
you can try and make an application under de facto relationship with irish national. I heard of a few cases, where the non-EU spouse received stamp 4, but I wouldn't know the details. There are certain requirements that need to be passed, so maybe your partner will be lucky and will get stamp 4. At ...
HSE, just to let you as you are a doctor, you may have spent some time in the state as a temporary registered doctor, which may not be counted towards your 8 years.
time spent on stamp 3 counts towards WCATT stamp
HSE, that sounds good in theory. Unfortunately, EU treaty rights section does not deal with irish national. It's only EU nationals other than Irish. And as well EU treaty rights are mainly dealing with spouses/partners and children of EU nationals. I am not sure about their views on the parents of E...
If the non-EU parents are visa required nationals, the only option for them is C visit visa valid for 90 days. They would have to leave after the 90 days. The fact that their son/daugher is a naturalised irish does not make much of a difference. If the non-EU parents are non visa required nationals,...
Mr.Goodman, once you get naturalised, your wife will be able to get stamp 4, which will be her residency on the basis of her marriage to irish national. If you are here on work permits, she could apply for long term residency as a dependant of a work permit holder. She should have 60 months on stamp...
scrudu, she should get stamp 4 when she presents herself at her local immigration officer with her irish husband and marriage cert and other docs. if there is any problem (e.g. Immigration officer has doubts about the validity of marriage, or an applicant is illegal in the state), she will be refere...
