My wife (non-EEA) didn't need a GNIB card. We both applied for PPSN 4 days after we came to Ireland (2 years ago). She had D type visa to join the spouse and a stamp saying something like "no employment" (even though it was against the rules*). * Both EEA citizens and their family member may take up...
Hi pinkpanter . Could you write you SOLVIT case number, or maybe I could get it from you on PM? I would appreciate. I have a similar situation and I contacted SOLVIT about it. Polish authorities claim they need a proof that we are about to go to Poland, which in some cases is impossible to provide (...
Here is a quote from the response on my complaint to SOLVIT against Ireland. A part of it was about the first three month period and the stamp my wife got in her passport when we came to the state. The Department of Justice recognise the rights conferred in Article 6.2 and require no conditions or f...
I wouldn't really involve EU law in it - I think it wouldn't cover this area as well as that would be a tough battle to take. And I wouldn't say that officialls' stupidity is a discrimination. What they did is very strange and you can take either legal actions (Polish court) to revoke their change, ...
They are late sometimes unfortunately (I had such case with my wife). Even when they're not, they send the letter in last days before Stamp 4 expiries - so your situation is totally "normal". The second thing is that if these regulations apply to your girlfriend, Stamp 4EUFAM does not give the her t...
I wonder if anyone tried to make a complaint and demand to receive Stamp 4EUFam for 5 years as it should be. Passport expiry date is not an excuse to issue a GNIB card for a shorter period. My demand is still being processed in SOLVIT system as my wife received Stamp 4EUFam for only 6 months (due to...
He should apply within 90 days - doesn't matter when. Even if not, he still has the right to stay in Ireland, but arguing with Irish authorities about it's probably not what you wish. Someone might correct me if I'm wrong, but AFAIR there is no obligation to prove that you're self-sufficient if you'...
No real difference. The questions asked are (to my knowledge) the same. Only difference I see is that the EEA-FP is free of charge. I would say that the only difference is that the person with EEA-FP must: travel with or to join the EEA family member: However, the non-EEA family member must be trav...
Hi Łukasz. It's a shame you found this forum so late but it's good you did :) It should be all fine now and if you have any questions just write here and if you have some questions how the procedure looks more less, you can pm me. My situation is a bit different because I came to Ireland with my wif...
Hi guys I have a German Family resident card for five years as my wife is German, I was wondering if I could travel alone to Ireland and they told me that i need a visa to travel alone if my wife is Not Traveling with me, even know I have a Family Resident Card of a Union Citizen. Look at http://ww...
Thank you. If you don't mind me asking, all of what you say, did you actually see that happen to someone from EEA or are those all your experience? I don't want to be scared away but it seems to be that Ireland is not that EU-friendly regarding visa application? My wife is Russian. In embassy in Wa...
You can check if they can go under the Irish Short-stay Visa Waiver Programme http://www.inis.gov.ie/en/INIS/VWP%20Info%20NoteRev4-20111024.pdf/Files/VWP%20Info%20NoteRev4-20111024.pdf My wife got multi D visa for 4 months but even then her passport was stamped only for 30 days at the Dublin airport...
