Re: Join family (Sponsor is an Irish citizen) - is private health insurance required?

The conditions in which she has arrived in Ireland is through you, the sponsor. As such you as sponsor in the eyes of INIS should be able to support her without recourse to public funds until such time that she obtains permanent residence I believe.

Re: Certification of colour copy of passport

Hi Commissioner of oath will know what to do in terms of certifying your passport for citizenship as they are usually familiar with the process. You’ll need to also use the below form which commissioner of oath or otherwise will need to sign https://www.irishimmigration.ie/wp-content/uploads/2023/05...

Fermoy has also a Garda station with Immigration service.
Usually you can only use a Garda station with immigration service within your home address catchment area.

Certified passport - Citizenship

Hi all Can I check do we still need to certify every single page of the passport and send it or only the biometric page certified to send it? According to the below guidance document only the biometric page is required to be certified? https://www.irishimmigration.ie/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Citiz...

According to the below source it is after tax income PER YEAR. If you are married both incomes are considered I am not sure what exactly constitutes “full private health insurance” but typically €80-€100 per month per parent is considered a decent cover. You should also be absolutely certain you can...

Re: Are dependent family members of irish citizen beneficiaries of Directive 2004/38/EC or not? Now confused

Angel99 is right and the embassy is also correct in insisting on visa payment. The Directive makes provision only if the Non-EU Citizen has a settlement status in a EU Country. Unfortunately that is not the case with your mother whom holds a UK settlement status. Your Irish Citizenship does not give...

Thanks for the reply.

Isn't the passport application doable via online?
You can only apply online from a certain countries listed on the DFA website but you’ll still need to send in documents as previously stated on my reply

Re: Irish passport first time application (via naturalization) from the non-EU country

Yes but it may be a bit of a pain to apply from abroad (not sure about if applying from UK) You’ll need to contact the Irish embassy to make payment for application. You can get the naturalisation cert and photo page of passport certified by a solicitor/notary public instead of sending in the origin...

Re: Freedom of movement route or local law route

Hi Angel99

Many thanks for your response. Very useful indeed. The Non-EU National is from a country that won’t be facing requirements for additional documents so both of your suggestions are very feasible

Kind regards

Re: Translation of bank statements for visit visa

Not sure in your birth country but in mine I’ve used in the past a public notary to translate bank statements into English which was much cheaper than the Bank doing the same. Maybe you might have something similar where you are from that’s cheaper to translate?
