Ireland non eu spouse visit visa
Hi and thanks to all who reply in advance . and if directive 2004/ec /38 and fatty patty is reading this thread I will appreciate if they can contribute something as they both always been v helpful in past to my threads.
Please read from the inis website I have copied the requirements .
Now I want to mainly know about visit visas to Ireland as non eu spouse of british national .
We are married and living together in third country Pakistan for about 19 months approx .
.marriage is registered with local authorities with foreign office.
Now what I want to know is
To apply for visit visa to Ireland according to directive 2004/ec /38 as a eu family member or non eu spouse of eu
we only need to submit
Valid passport of my and eu
National spouse passport
Marriage certificate .
But according to inis web site and irish consulate Karachi Pakistan bank statement of six months with proper running is needed lump sum lodgements will not be taken into consideration
If we apply for a visit visa and submit a bank statement of six month with a balance of 4000 thousand pounds will this be enough for 30 days visit visa to accompany eu spouse.
but point we are concern is bank statement was very low sometimes in last six months like 500 pounds sometimes and sometimes thousand but now balnce is 4000 thousand is it enough or visa can be turn down just because of bank stement and if it turned down can we appeal against it as it is against the directive 2004/38ec .
To ask for bank statement and employment .
Inis website documents required.
MINIMUM DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED WITH ALL VISA APPLICATIONS
• All visa applicants must be able to show evidence that they can support themselves for the duration of their stay in Ireland without recourse to public funds or resources.
• A detailed bank statement, showing sufficient funds, and covering the immediate 6 month period prior to submitting a visa application should be submitted. Lump sum lodgements made in the run up to an application being made are not taken into consideration when assessing a person’s ability to support themselves
does this apply to us as well and if yes 4000 pounds balance is enough for 30 days visit visa to accompany eu spouse.
as bank statement is needed for last six months somtimes balance was v low in last sixmonths does that going to effect the visa application.
and can visa be refused on bank statement in our case . according to directives 2004/ec/38 all above things should not be submitted by non eu spouse of eu national any ways.
• For all categories of visa applications it will be necessary to include details of any other family members presently in Ireland, or any other EU State

Please ensure ALL documentation listed under the relevant category is included with your application.
FAILURE TO INCLUDE ALL LISTED DOCUMENTATION WILL RESULT IN THE REFUSAL OF YOUR APPLICATION.
