Re: ESTA with a previous visa overstay?

The only way to know if an ESTA will be approved or denied is by applying, others in this forum had issues with US immigration and had their ESTA approved. I would recommend to be upfront and disclose the overstay when applying for the ESTA because even when you don't meet an immigration officer whe...

Re: Inform INIS about separation

I would get a second opinion because I think the advise from your lawyer isn't right, see below: "An application for an EU3 Permanent Residence Card which is made on the basis of retained rights will not be accepted unless the non-EEA national applicant has already been approved for the retention of...

we applied jan 2018, emails are answered with the generic response.
Given the delays with the naturalisation applications nowadays I would suggest to renew your mother's current Stamp 4 EU FAM.

Re: None EU mother travelling to UK with two Irish Children

No, she can't travel without a visa on Stamp 4.

If your friend's Stamp 4 in Ireland is based on the marriage to an Irish citizen and travelling together with the Irish citizen to the UK then she won't need to apply for a visa.

Thank you for the reply. The problem is that we are not together that long so it's quite hard. And even if I leave the country and try to apply for the "De facto relationship" it will probably be denied because of the length of the time we are together. It wasn't planned... But thankfully I have a ...

Yes, you will need to apply for a visa and pay the required fees regardless of your marriage to an Irish citizen if travelling on your own.

Re: H1B and TN Visa Combination Scenario

I don't know if you are following the news but DHS is currently trying to pass a law that will revoke the right to work of H4 visa holders.

I guess if that's the case you are better pursuing the TN visa route.

Re: [Please Help]Non-EU Spouse allowed to work remotely after arriving to Ireland and temporary Stamp 4 granted?

U.S. citizens can enter visa-free for tourism or business stays of up to 90 days, she can work from Ireland for a U.S. company for up to 90 days with no issues. I wouldn't extend over those 90 days to be on the safe side.
