Do you have authority for this? I don't think there is any judgement on length of time unreasonable for naturalisation.. :cry: I don't have any judgement handy but the High Court has confirmed that the Nationality and Citizenship Acts give the Minister for Justice a very wide discretion in relation...

go to your local immigration officer straight away with the child, the child's birth cert and PP, and your PP and GNIB card. your Permission should be extended on stamp 4 status. It would seem that his permission has already expired so he doesn't have any existing permission so he will not receive ...

Hello, I hold a study visa stamp2 before I submit a request to change into other status to remain in Ireland as I have a Irish minor citizen child. My visa is expired during the process. I am wondering am I legal now when I am waiting the decision please??? Any advices is great help. Thank you very...

Either way, the rules have changed and Directive 2004/38 is now properly being implemented and that's to be applauded i suppose. Do you think that Ireland now implements all of the Directive properly? Not necessarily. I presume that most of it is being properly implemented but I don't know enough t...

I think i will have to agree with you on this one as well. The key is, a reference for preliminary ruling was made, and thankfully the offensive and unlawful Regulations 3(2) was discarded. I must emphasise that the court was not satisfied by the SK precedent which supports 3(2). Anyway, these are ...

I am sure you would appreciate that this is not the first time this issue has been taken far. There was a petition to the European Parliament. The commission has sent the Irish Authorities a "Reasoned Opinion" on this. Surely you can't say an unreported JR did what all those abled bodied ...

I know I'm being a little pedantic here but I have to advise you that you are incorrect when you say that it was Ireland who took the Metock case to the ECJ. Ireland did not want the Metock case to go to the ECJ and if the government had any say in the matter, it would not have gone to he ECJ. Irel...

It's a positive move for sure but this was not a proactive step by the Government. This was forced on them by High Court Judicial Review proceedings wherein somebody challenged the visa requirement. For 5 years the Irish Justice ministers under FF have evaded their legal duties, and violated EU law...

Another +ve move from Alan Shatter. It's a positive move for sure but this was not a proactive step by the Government. This was forced on them by High Court Judicial Review proceedings wherein somebody challenged the visa requirement. Thanks Muttsnuts, I understand that the imperative for the chang...

Yes, if the resident card is issued on the basis of Art 10, Directive 2004/38/EC
with the text “Residence card of a family member of a Union citizenâ€

took it to ECJ,Germany will be the member state that took it to ECJ simple answer no need for d long explanation.Mr Mutsnut I do not disagree with your view on Zambrano which is exactly what i am interested on,not d political story but ur view is different 4rm Mr Walsgrumble who started involving t...

What are you saying is the conflicting Judgement with Zambrano? McCarthy? Judge cooke may be in charge of the list but the other Judges might have their own view of Zambrano and whether further references are indicated. Do you think Minister Shatter was a bit premature with his statement? Maybe (di...

I believe the points you have raised are valid, but the national courts can assess that. Without sounding too restrictive, i believe Zambrano applies to parents on whom a minor child is dependant on. That dependancy can be emotional or financial. The fact that a child does not live with a parent wh...

You are meant to be able to travel Visa Free with the EU Fam card and original Marriage Cert but I understand even the EU recommends you get a Visa to ensure smooth transit through the ariport, as immigration officers may unlawfully refuse or cause you delays while they check out the law. Last mont...

All the immigration advicers and lawyers are having a meeting regarding this ruling, everyone in northern ireland gave a shit about it, the rupublican and Unionist, they are really worried. for now the way out in Northern ireland is to surrender your british passport if you really love your partner...

Hi All, Am currently holding a working visa (Stamp 4), and about to renew it next month; Now am wondering whether to continue my working visa (valid for 2yrs), or change to residence on basis of child (same stamp 4, but valid for 3yrs)? Anyone with any suggestions are welcome. Thanks! Are you on a ...

McDowell is an evil man, whose main goal in life was to oppress and distabilise the lives of hardworking and for the most part, law abiding immigrant, the same was Ahern. Jia overruled Akrich fullstop, no ifs or buts. The fact that UK, Ireland, Denmark and Finland of the 27 states did not see it th...

Hi, Like ciaramc, I am also an Irish citizen excercising my Treaty Rights abroad, and I will be returning to Ireland with my non-EU spouse in less than 3 months. I would be very interested to know how you get on, ciaramc. What I'd like to know is - when my wife sends the EU1 application (along with...

Heya we went to Burgh quay and they gave us the application form and explained it to us....at the airport the airport the police man knew we were applying under EU1 think it was type of visa we had! He was very nice as well...explained everything in detail. I was wondering the same thing will they ...

do you mean I have rights to complain about it? Unfortunately, you have no right to complain. The length of the permission stamp on your passport is at the discretion of the GNIB Officer who stamps it. The reason you would have received only one year is most likely due to the current economic clima...

"Metock case actually involved 4 sets of couples who took four separate judicial review proceedings. They were all lumped together as they all raised the same issue and had similar factual circumstances." Yes, we know that. No one is in disputes with that fact. The High Court, after submi...
