Right ok. Legally it is possible. The same as being able to win the lottery is doable but difficult. I understand what you are saying. What I was getting at also is the fact now I am exercising my treaty rights in a different member state, working and living with my non-eu spouse, after a certain le...

No you're wrong. I done some digging around and found the ECJ case of Surinder Singh. The case stated that nationals of a Member State who are exercising an economic Treaty right (that is, as a worker or self-employed person) in another Member State will, on return to their home state, be entitled t...

Dublin passport control is small. 2 immigration officers when I was then on 2 December with my non-eu spouse. We lined up together (EU citizens) and was told to go to the other immigration officer (on the right) to get the visa stamped.

Hi - Is there a need for a covering letter or anything stating the directive or should I just send the documents with the EU 1 form? Looks like the Irish do ask for additional items. This is with regards to: (c) Evidence of current activities of the EU Citizen in the state. Need to show signed contr...

Quick question Directive/2004/38/EC, I don't know if you would be able to help. My Mother-in-law who is a non-eu national would I be able to use this directive for her to visit me and my wife once my non-eu wife get's her residence permit?

yeah - I just did this. I applied for a visa for my Non-EU spouse to accompany me on a visit to Ireland. All you need is the visa to get entry, doesn't matter how long they stamp it for at the gate. Doesn't matter what visa you have etc. We gave a covering letter, explaining the directive and the ke...

Well yes and no. I would assume 3 month would be a short term how about a 6, 8 or 12 month contract? Or does it solely have to be permanent full time?

thanks is advance

Hi everyone, Arrived in Dublin yesterday. Not really a problem at the airport but the immigration officer did not stamp for 3 months but only for 1.5 months. Does this mean I only have 1.5 months rather than 3 to exercise my treaty rights? Or, is the 1.5 month stamping insignificant and we still hav...
