I noticed that http://www.entemp.ie/labour/workpermits was updated today and that http://www.entemp.ie/labour/workpermits/marriedtoeu.htm and http://www.entemp.ie/labour/workpermits ... oeunew.htm were deleted. Anyone know about any updates to the Non EU Spouse Work Permits?

Thanks Cantaro - We have been following the threads, and thank goodness we found them before transferring. I have not lived in another EU country. I just didn't know if being transferred would help our case in any way. I guess it's just wishful thinking. :)

Does anyone know about Intra-Company Transfer Permits? I found this guide on them: http://www.entemp.ie/publications/labour/2007/guideict.pdf It says spouses can work once they are legally resident in the state.
