Hi I would advise you to follow the required document listed on the EUTR3 form and explanatory leaflet. Most people do not use solicitors and have successful applications following those instructions. If the immigration department requires further information they will request it. According to the E...
Hi Raja.brit 1. Since you’re providing electronic documents, I think one photo is sufficient. They can print twice if required. However, there’s no harm in sending 2 photographs if you choose to do so. 2. The letter sent when granting the EUFAM card states: “When applying for the Permanent Residence...
I applied on 1 January and received the acknowledgment email on the same date. The last email came on Friday 8 January. Raja.Brit did you cancel your first application? They can request a copy of the British citizen’s passport when processing the application. I hope INIS realises it’s confusing peop...
Hi I received that acknowledgment email after I submitted my application. After a few days, I got the email stating: Your application for Irish Residency Permit Card Renewal (Dublin Region), Acknowledgement Number XXXX, Application Date XXXX. The processing of your application has been completed and...
Hi, has anyone heard of INIS requesting evidence of being in the State one year after issuing a Stamp 4 EUFAM? My sister received a letter from INIS asking for evidence of EU and non-EU being in Ireland, copies work contracts, bank statements and passports. They haven’t moved or changed any work det...
Hi, your UK immigration history is not relevant to your EU1 application unless there is a criminal offence involved. See details of the Metock case. You can travel with your husband as long as he gets a job, becomes self employed, a student or self sufficient in 3 months. As long as you have your pa...
Hi, when you apply for your Permanent Residence Card you’ll need to use the EU3 form. Your application will be based on an living in Ireland with an EU citizen who is employed, self-employed, studying or self-sufficient in Ireland. The documents required are listed in the EU3 Form & EU3 Explanatory ...
Hi, I think you can apply under the EU Directive for Freedom of Movement, using the Surinder Singh route. I’m not sure if the application forms are different, but spouses of EU citizens use the EU1 form, partners use the EU1A form. You can email INIS using the rut realty rights email and ask. Under ...
It’s happened to a friend of mine. You did not break the law by entering the country without a visa, there are case laws about this. Look up Metock. As long as you informed INIS soon after you entered the country, you’ll be fine. Ireland went to court and lost over a case where they argued the spous...
Hi, You can travel from UK on a ferry from Scotland to Belfast then a train to Dublin without a visa. Start looking for accommodation and a job as soon as you arrive. You can send your CV before you’re in Ireland, although some employers will not respond until you’re in Ireland. Send the EU1 form as...
Hi 1. The driving licence idea is just to help you get your PPS numbers as soon as possible. You can wait until he has a job offer then make an appointment to get the numbers. You will be sent the numbers a week after your appointment. 2. I think you print and travel with a copy of the directive, th...
I agree with the last post. It's about evidencing that the EU citizen was exercising their rights. Additional documents that show you were living together during that time will help but the Residence Card / Certificate of application is not part of the criteria. As far as I know.
Hi I'll try to help you as I have moved from the UK to Ireland. 1. You have a right to move with your husband to Ireland under the EU Directive 2004/38/EC. Previous immigration history does not matter according to the Metock case (google it, can't remember the case number). 2. Decide where you are g...
Hi, I don't know much about doing SS from UK to Ireland but on the basis of EU law, the same should apply. 1. You lived in UK for more than 12 weeks, so you would qualify for the SS route. The non-EU's negative immigration history shouldn't be relevant due to the Metock case law (Metock v Minister f...
Hi I don't know much about self employment but I have heard that the non-EU working/salary can be included as part of the EU self sufficiency. As long as you have the sickness insurance and the non-EU is working. It's an option you could consider since you had already applied using the self sufficie...
Read the EU directive 2004/38/EC. It only applies if you are moving to Ireland or another EU country. You can live with you spouse for more than 12 weeks then return to the UK and apply under the Surinder Singh route. I would advise you stay at least 1 year in the EU country. However, visas to Irela...
