Normally, in general EU countries, they don't allow you to stay in EU with tourist visa more than 6 months or 180 days per year. If not, it means you stay in EU more than in your home country. So I think you might have a chance to get a visa to come back to Ireland again in this November. But to com...

I am not sure what do u mean by Spanish ID. Does it mean that you can have Spanish passport?? If you can have Spanish passport that mean you can travel to Ireland with an ID card. However, if it's the type of ID just to show your residence in Spain, this ID doesn't mean that you're Spanish citizen a...

I got a letter from DOJ just 1 week before my temp stamp 4 expire, so try to sit back and relax. There's nothing you can do but waiting.

My EU husband got a job in Ireland. I applied for Type D visa 6 months ago in other EU country. I translate everything by myself. I think you can do that by yourself too. They also ask for bank statement and a comprehensive sickness insurance cover. For bank statement, it's not a big problem. I prin...

Don't worry if your other documents are solid. I don't have PRTB letter too. Up until now, I still haven't got any letter from PRTB. I've just got approved last month, just a week before my temp stamp4 expired. All I sent them are rent agreement, gas bill, internet bill, and bank statement showing t...

I think Irish's spouse has got only Stamp4, not Stamp4 EU Fam. Therefore, your wife needs both re-entry visa and visa to Spain. For Re-entry visa, your wife can go there alone. You don't have to go with her. She just has to bring your passport/ID card and marriage certificate. About visa to Spain, f...

My friend got Stamp3 for EU1 application since last month. Today she's received a letter to go to change to Stamp4.

I think those who got Stamp3 will have this letter soon.

After you apply by post, Department of Justice will send your documents back with a letter suggesting you to go to local immigration to have stamp4 for 6 months.

There's no time requirement to apply for 5 years Stamp4EUfam. You can apply even on the first day you arrive in Ireland. Use the EU1 form.

1. For Stamp4EUfam, you can download the form here. (Form EU1)

2. Original. You have to send by registered post. You will get them back around 1-2 weeks.
3. 6 months

Normally, stamp4EUfam is valid for 5 years or until your passport is expire. It's not usual if you got stamp4EUfam for 1 year only. Stamp4 is not valid as re-entry visa, but stamp4EUfam is valid as re-entry visa. I'm not sure about your situation, but I think you need to apply 5 years stamp4EUfam wi...

Today, I went there at 10.30 am in the morning. I got ticket no.205. I stayed there until 3.15-3.30 in the afternoon to finish everything. I'm not sure whether it is like this everyday, or I'm just lucky. I just wanted to go there to ask about my application sent via registered post 2 weeks ago. How...

Thank you everyone! Today, I finally got this re-entry visa. I went there around 10.30. I explained my situation to the guy at the entrance. He said that now to have re-entry visa it's not 4 working days anymore. I have to wait at least 10 working days , so I should have my passport back next week. ...

In order to ask for informations, do I have to go there at 2am to get the number for re-entry visa? Or I can just walk in at any times?

I think tomorrow or tonight, I will go there.

I heard about long waiting line for re-entry visa at Burgh Quay, so I applied by post. I have sent all the documents include marriage certificate and passport of my husband with registered post which arrived to Garda on the next day. It has been 2 weeks now. We have to travel on this Friday. I still...

No news yet.

Thank you IQU. I hope I can get Stamp4 next week too. (x cross the finger x)

If I get 5 yeas stamp4 before 28 July, I will surely stay longer than 11 Aug. Italy is our home.

I have Temp Stamp for EU1 application which will be valid until 12 Aug . We would like to go for vacation and our best friend's wedding party in Italy from 29 July-11 Aug. I have 5 years Italy's residence permit. On 11 Aug that we will fly back to Ireland, will we have any problem with Ryanair check...

I've applied since Feb, 2010, so I got stamp4.

If they claimed that they don't see the original passports, I think you have no choice but to send them original passports again. However, in the first correspondence from them, did they mention anything about passport?

I think they forgot to give you the instruction along with the first correspondence. In my case, when they returned the documents that I sent for the first time, they also gave me 2 letters, one regarded to application and another is the instruction to bring this letter to register with garda in ord...
