I think the medical card is outside the scope of the treaty, so she will not be covered. She would have been entitled to it, if she was living in Ireland but working in another member state. I think she will face considerable difficulty convincing the DOJ that she qualifies. Cross border worker are ...

Sorry for putting you through so much trouble. It is very kind of you to provide us these links. However , i am unconvinced these figure can be replicated into reality, especially the transport bit. My EEA national sibling spends about 40 euros a week on fuel cost for her work car, and i estimate he...

You were ordinarily resident outside Ireland (other than in public service) for a continuous period of 7 years and, without a reasonable excuse, did not register your name and a declaration of your intention to retain Irish citizenship with an Irish diplomatic mission or consular office or with the...

That calculation seems too complex for me. Maybe, just maybe, i am not the only one. I think a bit of simplification on the abbreviations will not go amiss. Perhaps it is traveling cost for means other than public transport. If your wife will be applying as self-sufficient, you might need to add med...

10 Euros a week on travel. Which part of Ireland is that?

It cost nearly 25 euros where i am living in Dublin, and the system is quite inefficient and incoherent.

I will love to move to that area.

Because your case seems uncomplicated, i will go for the FLR premium, which is instant. However, the burden of documentation required for Spousal (FLR(M)) is quite extensive. Accommodation and proof of enough fund to maintain yourself. You will be able to receive ILR quicker. Please look at This and...

Your case look like those Chikwamba kind cases. They do take disproportionately long to deal with them. You will have to exercise some patience.

Why do you say there is just potential for them to obtain irish citizenship. As far as I know this is clearly stated that once you get the birth registered in the Foreign Births register, the child is an irish citizen from that point on. Without the registration, the child will not be an Irish Citi...

I don't believe paternity can only be ascertained by DNA alone. Did you add his name as the father on your Maternity Record File and on the Child Birth form? If you did, you can use that. You can also use the maintenance documents from the Child Support Agency as well. You can also write a supportin...

I suspect you are going to have to try and get hold of the dad and get him to provide proof of his nationality.

You should have got him to do that before you got rid of him.

You should also have put his name on the Birth certificate, which would have helped as well.

It has been transposed into UK domestic law.

The directive on its own and in itself is not a law. It is a direction on how the rules should be implemented into law.

You can get a copy from the registry office.

How come your mum was refused. Is she still married to your dad?

Have you lived in the UK all these period, or the first 10 years of your life, and this can be proven.

I sent you a PM, check it up.
