I wouldn't worry about it Sophie. I've never heard of the 90 days / 180 days rule, and before I was able to sort out my green card I spent a lot of time in Ireland as a visitor. I always told them the truth, my partner lives here, we're working on arranging a work/residency permit but it takes a lon...

Question about Student Registration with GNIB

My partner is Irish and resides in Dublin. We have been doing long distance for 3 years now, and would like to live together. We tried for a green card, but were unsuccessful. It looks like studying in Ireland is the simplest way to go about this, until we marry. I've found a program a 2 year progra...
