what about your wife's standing?BigAppleWoodenShoe wrote:HURRAH! I finally received my letter from DOJ today!!! I wasn't granted residence, but I did get a Stamp 4, which permits me to reside and work in Ireland. For me, that's better than nothing, at least for my situation! I don't have the time right now, but I am going to write out everything I did. Maybe something helped me get a Stamp 4 rather than just an outright denial. Wishing you all the best!!!![]()

Hi Erik, atleast the stamp4 will be arriving soon...you wrote 'Erik84 wrote: An additional problem/opportunity in my case is that my wife and I are going to Sweden in a couple of days. I'm Swedish and my wife obtained a residency permit to Sweden after applying for EU1 to Ireland.
http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewto ... ght=#88422'My wife who is the non-EU citizen got a 6 month multiple entry visa upon visting Irish immigration at Burgh Quay in Dec 06. She is like everyone else waiting for a response on EU1''.
This would not surprise me.it may help to be American
I think we were very lucky, and it was back in December 06, when things were a bit leaner. We simply said that we wanted to go and celebrate christmas in Sweden with my family (which was perfectly true). The people at the counter at INIS said that they couldnt believe that I wouldnt be allowed to visit my own country with my wife. Then I said that the problem wasnt really entering Sweden but coming back to Ireland. The Swedish embassy wouldnt issue a visa since they saw that my wife only had a single entry (used) visa to Ireland and they wanted to avoid a situation where a person is in limbo between two countries. Then we were told to come back after closing time and my wife was given a 6 months multiple entry visa to Ireland.archigabe wrote: can you please let us know on how your wife was able to apply for a re-entry visa without a GNIB registration number?
thanks!
