Thank you guys!
I didn't see your posts earlier as I thought I might get a mail or so
So quick update:
After complaining to the Ambassador as well as to the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service they started processing my husband's visa. Since the application is in the system of the Irish embassy I called them on a daily basis and got confirmation yesterday that it will be processed within time. Today they confirmed that there will be an outcome next week - so I will give it a try on Wednesday and keep all fingers crossed that it gets approved (even though their is no reason to refuse it - but hey - I am living in Africa since a while and nothing is impossible!).
A have a quick follow up question:
I have not booked our flights yet but would like to do so today as they are getting more and more expensive. On the visa application we entered 26/06 as "Dates of travel from". Could we book a flight for the 25/06 (Cape Town - Dublin)? That means that we would arrive in Ireland on the 26/06. Or is the travel date only a "suggestion"?
Thank you guys so much!
And by the way - We will move to Cork!
