Unfortunately, you are not able to send private messages unless you have made 30 posts. Hey Obie, I now have 30 posts and am able to see profiles but I still can’t send a message. Could you please try and send me a PM so I can provide more details? I really need your opinion in this matter. Thanks ...

I applied for FOI through my lawyer. Question I want to ask is if only he will get an answer or a copy will be posted to me also?

Both lines should work.

Strictly speaking the 2004 Act does not apply to people who benefit from the free movement regulations 2015, even if they are non-National who are not visa exempt persons.. In the generality of cases the officer will be correct to refuse a non national who requires a visa to enter the state, but fa...

Exactly. You were required to have a visa (in this case an EUTR visa) and you did not have one. Therefore you were not allowed to enter the country It's not complicated in the slightest. What you aren’t understanding from my point of view is that I had no idea my stamp was revoked 4 days ago (as pe...

Validity of residence card 8. (1) The period of validity of a residence card issued under Regulation 7 shall be equivalent to the envisaged period of residence in the State of the Union citizen in respect of whom the recipient of the card is a family member, or 5 years from the date of issue of the...

You need to get a police character certificate from your country of origin which must state that you have no criminal record.

What is the equivalent of EUFAM card for spouses of Irish citizens?

I could provide you more details through a private message because I don’t feel comfortable posting it here as it constrains the names.

If you can send me a PM, I can send the details.

How long were you out of the state for?, What decision is presently under review the revocation or the refusal of entry? My last two visits in Ireland before my June 2019 visit were in June 2018 and September 2018 so I was out for about 9-10 months before my final visit in June 2019. The appeal und...

Most important thing for the US visa is your interview and then the documents so make sure you are able to convince the interviewer that you’d be back after your proposed visit.

I believe you hae a strong case in relation to the removal. The removal was unlawful period. You have a right of entry into the state and the visa officer erred in law and acted unlawfully in refusing you entry. Furthermore it appears you were accorded no right to challenge the refusal of entry, wh...

I would tend to agree with Obie but you can send an email to EUTR to confirm. They normally reply within a week!

Has anyone heard anything from INIS recently?
I seem to have sent them a couple of email and it has been months and I don't seem to have received a response.
Wondering what's going on?
Are they ignoring all emails?

I send email for irish spouse visa

They don’t take more than a week to respond.

Obie, what do you suggest now?

Should I withdraw my appeal and apply for a new case?

Dear Sir/Madam, she is exercising her rights. She is a partner with me in one of our companies plus she runs her own website which is registered with CRO.

The Directive says he needs a visa, but not necessarily pre-entry visa, as provision is made for visa to be granted at port. The difficulties is, the immigration officer in this case failed to undertake the task mandated by regulation 4(5). No examination was done, he was simply put in a plane and ...

I have been saying all along it was my mistake to not have informed them about change of address. I filed an appeal to review the decision to revoke the stamp 4 but I am very confused right now after reading all the comments here. Another problem I have on hand is that I applied for a Join C visa in...

I am extremely sorry for what you went through. It should never had happened and it causes me immense distress, that this happened in Ireland. In an Irish case this happened. The court accorded thousand of Euros in damages. It’s been really hard on us and I am most worried for my elder daughter who...

Therefore in accordance with the regulations, the officer should first have tried to establish if the OP's wife was in the state, if she was, the officer must then establish if she has been residing for more than 3 months, if she has, the officer must then determine if she is exercising treaty righ...

I am a qualified immigration professional who has worked in UK and Ireland, so I know what I am talking. I do not need to go very far into EU law jurisprudence. The 2015 regulations mandate an immigration officer not to deport a family member of an EU citizen who are not in possession of a visa. In...

What’s wrong with the history? I have been granted a number of visas to US, UK and other countries. I have been granted 3-4 visit visas to Ireland without stamp 4 from 2014 to 2016.

Thanks for your suggestions and time. I really appreciate that!

My lawyer asked for some senior’s assistance regarding mandamus and this is what he was told. Please see below an expert opinion from the Barrister. We cannot invoke JR in this situation as INIS revoked your stamp in accordance with the free movement regulations and failure to inform them of your ne...

I have written an email in my personal capacity to the minister for equality and justice but haven’t heard back. Can my lawyer write to him through an official channel and get an immediate response? Lastly, I didn’t mention that the immigration officer took my Garda card which is a must to fly from ...
