Response from INIS to emails

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? If so, they should at least dedicate more time on sending approvals. Looks like the w...

Re: Visa Revoked and Citizenship

I think they still can never deport you as your new spouse is Irish. You should double check with a solicitor to see what s your best option in this case, but find a real knowledgeable one. A lot of them dont know themselves.

Re: September Citizenship Ceremony 2019

It s strange how a ruling from an irish court can be based on definition of a word "continuous" from oxford dictionary and not common sense, clear facts and human rights. How can you stop or restrict any person from travelling just for the sake of irish passport. I think this simply shows how blind ...

Re: HAP AND CITIZENSHIP APPLICATIONS

I think it s the applicant only who should not have claimed any government assistance such as social welfare etc. It s not the spouse of the applicant. At least there is no such question in the application form. They only ask this relevant question from the applicant. If anyone has had a different e...

Re: Visa Revoked and Citizenship

I think they dont like it when someone on stamp 4 EU fam applies irish passport for their child even if they are entitled to do so. I know a person who did this and got a letter of revocation after a few months. This is totally insane. How can they stop people from doing so? They dont care if the ma...

Re: Citizenship applications from 2017 pending approval

Applications for Pakistani applicants seem to be getting particularly delayed, and for no reason. This is discrimination - I have a good few Pakistani friends who are in the same situation. INIS are constantly lying that the applications are being prepared for submission to the Minister. This is ext...

Re: Can you work remotely abroad without an employment permit?

I dont see a problem.
I work for a multinational and we have employees who get paid from ireland but they are in UAE and other countries.
You dont even need to bring this to immigration s attention as far as I think.
Simply fulfil the requirements and submit your application for the permit.

Re: delay in citizenship application - applied in 2016

INIS have clearly started lying. My friend is a solicitor and he said anyone who has to wait for one year or more, can take Inis to court. It would cost around 1500 euro max for the whole process, but I think it s worth it. It is utterly ridiculous and disgraceful the way they are treating people no...

Re: Citizenship applications from 2017 pending approval

I think after Second Stage comes the final stage I.e submission to the minister. So you should stay hopeful for the next ceremony.
Plus if a letter says that the application has been moved to the second stage, it means it s on second stage I.e character checks etc.

The response we had was via email. We are not banking on a result happening anytime soon, probably a result of some sort within this year, the whole process is a joke..
An email can be used as a proof in the court.. Just an FYI.

Re: Proofs of ‘each’ year of residence claimed

Hi,
When I submitted my application, I also submitted 3 proofs of my current address, just to be on the safe side, even though I had enclosed 3 proofs for the same year, but for a different address. I think being careful is the only way to ensure that you get yours second stage letter ASAP.

Hopefully, you ll be able to attend this ceremony. So keep praying. They have clearly said that they will send the invites 4 to 5 weeks before the ceremony and the ceremony is on the 26th of next month. So you can hear from them hopefully soon.
