Hi All
Im new to the board and hoping someone can clear up the unclear situation with NI immigration and confirm if my thinking is right or wrong.
I`m from Northern Ireland and currently live here with my Thai wife. She is here on a UK spouse visa which expires in March 2016. Whilst I have never held an Irish passport I am an Irish citizen as per the Good Friday Agreement and intend to get one soon.
According to what Ive read my wife can apply to be an Irish citizen once we have been married for 3 years with 1 year's continuous reckonable residence in the island of Ireland (not ROI) immediately before the date of your application. My wife will hit this milestone in January 2016.
Will my wife be able to get an Irish passport and then abandon the arduous next stage of the UK process?
