Application Based On: 5+ years residency, Non-EU (Stamp 1 & Stamp 4)

Applied Date: 13/02/2020

Application received Date: 14/02/2020

Acknowledgement Date: 19/02/2020

Second Letter: 03/06/2020 - letter asking for Police Clearance Certificate from when I worked in another country. I contested this by sending a response, quoting from Team 6 (provided by them when I inquired a week before submitting my application) that states "Since arriving to Ireland, if you resided in another country for any period for more than 6 months then an original Criminal Reference Certificate can be submitted." I haven't resided in another country for more than 6 months since arriving in Ireland. No response received after that.

Approval: Pending
