What did they say when you went there today?
I send an email to INIS and I they called my wife and asked her if they refused to be given the card and she said no.He also asked her about the documents. And the guy told her NOT to go and collect the card until he notifies her.
What is that now? Trouble? Why not to go and collect the card? they called me to but I missed the call and there is no way to call them back.
They email I've sent was the bellow:
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing because I have came across a situation to a local Garda station regarding my wife's stamp 4 IRP card.
We have recently got the letter from the Government that she can go to the Garda station and start the procedure to take the IRP card.
In the letter my wife was directed to take specific documentation with her:
1, The letter
2. Her passport
3.My passport as EU citizen
4, Marriage certificate
We did so and we also brought:
1. Her PPS card
2. A bank statement in her name
3. RTB letter in he name
4. Two Utility bills with both our names
However the Garda immigration officer kept insisting that she wants to see the lease of my apartment with my wife's name on it. I have repeatedly explain that it cannot be amended, as per the agency's reply, unless the contract expires.
Also, she requested my work contact and my lease in original form as well as letters from the agency proving that the lease cannot be amended.
I am writing to ask if this is normal. Is it normal to deviate from the original letter of the government and if so, i don't understand why the immigration officer requests so many proof of residence from my wife where for naturalization process 3 are enough and now we have provided more than 3 and she is still not satisfied.
Can you please enlighten me as to why this is happening and why there is such ad deviation from other Garda immigration officers?
