There are measures to be taken if an application had exceeded the standard processing times, worrying about it does not solve the problem, like I said if one had waited more than required and you have suffered anything as a result of the delay, one can take proceedings. If one application is legitim...

What exactly is the problem with waiting for a decision from the home office? EEA applications have already some safeguards to protect individual, I know we can handle things differently, but seriously loosing a sleep on an application which has been sent for consideration isn't gonna affect any cha...

I really do not think it is that straight forward to being self employed in Ireland, you can make registration as self employed fairly easily, but may be required to show proof of income from self employment.

Have you considered naturalisation? After 5 years of legal residence in Ireland you may be eligible to apply for naturalisation.

If you submit you application for naturalisation, I would suggest you submit another application for stam4EUFAM again if you think or do not meet the requirement for EU3

The 3 months rule is hardly enforced and to be honest it's even more difficult in a country like Ireland who does not have a registration system. So long you or your spouse won't be drawing on any benefit from the state nobody will bother you about the 3 months rule. Is there a particular reason you...

It depends actually. One is mostly likely to encounter immigration if traveling via holyhead or Liverpool, there are other routes which are much less frequent to checks.

If after presenting the necessary documents to show your right of admission, they still decided to arrest you of which will be very unlikely, you can take judicial actions against them. UKBA staffs are well learned with regards these rules, so expect that if one doesn't know the staff around would k...

It does not matter where you encounter immigration check, either at the border posts or at a stop and search routine, you have a right of admission into the UK being a holder of 4EUFAM.

Yes employers pay PRSI for their employee, how much or if they have paid at all in your wife's/partner's case I cannot confirm.

If your wife contact the welfare office, and give them her PPS number , they will be able to tell her straight away how much PRSI contributions she has accumulated.

That would mean she has not paid any PRSI, she would most likely not qualify for maternity payment. It is better to call them and get clarifications. They will most likely give you a definite answer on the phone.

Your PRSI class will determine how much you will get in benefit payment, once you have contributed PRSI you will usually receive maternity benefit, if you have paid 39 weeks PRSI in the last 12 months period before the first day of your maternity leave. If you do not meet that requirement it does no...
