Think the OP is asking about getting together to meet in person for the first time.
Sorry I missed the part where you said she is already in Ireland from eleven years. Partner visa must be hard to get, first try a visit visa and then see where it goes.Paddy_Leprechaun wrote: ↑Fri Nov 30, 2018 1:31 pmAre you sure you are talking online with Ms. Perfect from Poland and not with Mr. Scam from Nigeria? No disrespect to any country but I guess you know what I mean.
If you want to live in Ireland with her, she must come to Ireland, work and exercise her EU treaty rights to sponsor you. If you just want to meet in person she can invite & sponsor you to visit in Poland in the start and then you can move together wherever you want. Alternately you can invite her to Pakistan, I don't see any troubles for EU national to get a visa for any Asian country.
thanks. we will definitely meetup. but can we get together without getting married. both of us are not in to marriage but want to live together..
If you are not able to show evidence of being in a durable relationship and living together as if in a marriage etc, any visa will fail. There are no 'boyfriend/girlfriend' type visas.
Assuming that you guys want to go ahead and get married you will need to apply for a tourist short stay visa (C) first. In order to get married in Ireland you and your Polish girlfriend will need to give the state 3 months notice and attend an interview to determine that this a "bona fide" relationship, ultimately the registrar conducting the interview will grant or not a licence based on his/her opinion of the genuineness of an application. Once that part is completed you will need to leave the country and wait for the outcome of the interview.
If the marriage is legal in that third country then yes, it will be recognised in Ireland as well.
I was reading about the short stay c visa; it says that the applicant has to furnish sufficient documents to prove to the visa officer that s/he will return to his country of stay. Having said that, let's suppose I apply for a short stay C visa, I have to provide proofs pertaining to my commitment to return to Pakistan, however, on the other hand, I am applying for a C visa as a base to permanently move to my GF Ireland, I am confused and i believe that this is a paradoxical situation, isn't it?max307 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 30, 2018 6:47 pmAssuming that you guys want to go ahead and get married you will need to apply for a tourist short stay visa (C) first.

You can apply for a marriage visa after you and your Polish girlfriend have received an acknowledgement from the registrar confirming the date of receipt of notification of your intention to marry, it will be up to the registrar to decide if you are allowed to get married or not.
Once you are legally married a EU Treaty Rights application (link below) must be submitted in order to get a Stamp 4 EUFAM in Ireland.

Thanks a lot.
As the moderator mentioned above your chances of getting a short visitor visa (C) are very low.zeekowa89 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 02, 2018 4:04 pmThanks a lot.
I would be the happiest person in this world if she agreed to visit Pakistan because it would be cheaper and easier to move around. Apart from that, I would like her to meet my family here.
Alright, Let's say we meet once or twice, then what? again a C visa or a different approach?
You could always apply for a visa from you home country or the country you are currently living in, I'm not sure you will get it though.
