What you mean BRP? Do you mean IRP? After you notify DETE office, you have 6 months to find a new employer. If your IRP is valid for less than 6 months, then they can extend it to 6 months, if you have IRP valid for more than 6 months, then you can only use it for 6 months then you are supposed to leave Ireland.mmssaa wrote: ↑Wed Aug 17, 2022 11:34 pmHello there
I arrived in Ireland last year on a Critical Skills Employment Permit and am a non-EU citizen holding Stamp 1 visa.
Last week, I was made redundant.
When I called the EPMS DETE office, they advised me that I needed to email them to let them know that I had been made redundant and that I have six months to look for a new employer who would sponsor me.
I have a few questions about this.
My BRP is valid till April 2023. Let's assume that I am able to find an employer who is willing to sponsor me for a new Critical Skills Employment Permit. Then, what happens? Can I begin working as soon as I receive my permit? Or do I need to submit a new Stamp 1 visa application? Or do I need to use the new employment permit to extend my current BRP and start working?
Apologies, I mean IRP.What you mean BRP? Do you mean IRP?
Thanks for the prompt reply.If you find a new employer during this time, they can apply for a new work permit. After you get your new work permit, you can start working then you need to update your IRP details with your new employer. You don't need to do new application for Stamp 1, just update your employer details on it.
Today, I spoke with the solicitor. The solicitor informed me that I could visit India and come back to Ireland only after receiving a new job permit and my new IRP using that permit. This is because I will be asked about how I'm trying to enter Ireland without a permit when I return. This is where I'm completely lost.

Following completion of the 6 months “grace period” the permission will be liable to be terminated unless in the meantime the holder has obtained further employment or has been permitted to remain on another basis.
Persons who become redundant with less than 6 months left on their immigration permission (as indicated on their Irish Residence Permit (IRP) or GNIB Card) will be entitled to have your immigration permission (Stamp 1) extended to ensure that they receive the full 6 months grace period. (The issue of a new Irish Residence Permit (IRP) or GNIB Card is subject to the normal fee of €300).
