I read something on fb today regarding the social welfare annual statement, and then I requested the 'contribution statement' from my welfare, I do have records since 2019. But for the 'payment statement' shows 0. I am hoping to get more clarification if this could be used as the proof for the Depa...

Just one more question about the timeline - if i counted my time from Nov, 2019, I could start my application Nov, 2024? then, if i considered 20 days extra (on top of 6 weeks each year) that I was travelling outside of Ireland only last year, I would be able to start my application Dec, 2024? Is m...

1. I am trying to understand better how to calculate the points - eg. Employment Detail Summary 70 points + Current a/c Bank statement 50 points + Rent Agreement 50 points every year, I would reach the required 150 points? Yes. 50+50+70 = 170. 2. Does everyone have the social welfare annual stateme...

The main reference point is the first stamp in your passport when you are registered for the first time. The difference is only 4 months so I would count it as October 2022. But you can also try to explain your situation and mention covid time in your cover letter. (if you really want) Thank you so...

Hi All, Just a matter of interest - when we use the 'Naturalisation Residency Calculator', we need to select the start and the end date of the stamp you had for that year. In my case, I was on a critical skill visa from June 2020 to June 2022. The start date of my 1st stamp 1 card was supposed to b...

You can try to apply to re-entry visa inside Ireland. If you apply from out of Ireland then it will take way too long, like 10 weeks+ to get any kind of visa that will let you enter Ireland.

I will try this! Thank you for the answer.

That's so bad, I am sorry to hear that. May I ask what additional documents they required? Thanks

If you don't receive your IRP card 2 weeks before your intended travel date, you can go to Burgh Quay to try to apply for a visa there.

You do not need an Irish visa to fly out.

Okay! I will try it if I don't receive the IRP card. Thank you!

See thread below on how to get a re-entry visa. Just keep in mind that the visa can be issued for those who need to travel urgently only. It’s less likely that they will accommodate other situations but there is no harm trying. https://www.immigrationboards.com/ireland/travel-under-emergency-circum...

hoping to get an idea of the actual processing time for the IRP card... and also a question about the single/multi-entry visa for the traveling purpose (an option considering if not able to get the IRP card on time...) Thank you so much! Really appreciate your help here. :D I applied for my IRP card...
