Hello fellow HSMPers,
I've been gathering my evidence for months, and was going to be ready to submit my application by the end of next week. I've now been presented with a kink in my plans, and I'm not sure what to do.
I'm currently based in the US, and my company has just told me they are sending me to our Dublin office from Oct 1-Jan 1. There's the possibility I can stay until April, and possibly longer depending on the visa situation.
This is great news, and a great opportunity for me, as it's all expenses paid, etc. Also, getting a visa in Ireland is near-impossible, so it's a great chance to get to live there for a little while.
However, I'm not sure if I should still apply for the HSMP now. I'm worried if I do, and get it, I will have to move within 6 months. I won't be able to do this, I think, because I may still be in Dublin. However, if I wait to apply near the end of my stay, I need to go back to the US to apply, right? I don't think I can apply from a country that I'm not a citizen of. Any confirmation of this would be appreciated.
The other issue is that I turn 28 in late Feb, and I'm not sure if I will still qualify. I'm very confused, and no longer know what I want to do!
Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated. I feel very torn.
