I got an email reply (after a gap of 4 weeks) that my application is in advanced stage now. While it
is not possible to give an exact timeframe, this office will be in touch with you as soon as a decision has been reached.

Citizenship Helpdesk

I am paying 45 euros per month and it's not the basic one. I am through VHI.

Yes and his EU1 was approved in 7 months time.

A friend had to show 40k euros in bank plus comprehensive insurance cover. " if you get Stamp 4 as a spouse of an EU citizen, the requirement is that you must hold health insurance". That depends if your on Stamp 4 or Stamp 4 eufam. Stamp 4 eufam is as below as per the form EU1 If the EU citizen is ...

This will be unfair given EEA nationals can get away and I don't think department will allow this.
This is all very complex. Let's see what happens.

I am not expert in this particular case.

But yes according to the law you must inform the office and apply for retention of rights using EU5 application.

I went to local Gardai Station yesterday. It seems EU Treaty office are sending instructions to your local garda office and they haven't received this letter from EU Treaty office and so Gardai advised me to come again next week. 5 years ago when I got EU1 application approved, this was not the case...

Thanks Dana.

However, many immigration officers from different EU countries are not aware of Stamp4EUFAM. Is there any legal documentation that I could take?

If the EUFAM holder is traveling with or joining their EU citizen spouse then they can travel without a visa.

I have been contacting Hungarian embassy in Dublin to check if Stamp4EUFAM holder could visit Hungary with EU spouse but no response. Without getting Schengen visa.

Anyone visited Hungary with Stamp4EUFAM recently?

Yes, me too tired with visa, updating EU office of any changes, etc. I have also applied for citizenship. Do you think citizenship office will take into consideration that I have 10 years residence permit? Congratulations for your visa. Hope we will all get good news from citizenship real soon ,pret...

Hi Obie, I am looking for this info. Could you please tell me if there is an official statement available that EU spouse doesn't have to exercise their rights? On a friends letter it says “ if any circumstances had changes ,onus is on you to notify the office " And yes, EU spouse needed to go togeth...

Temporary stamp 4 given for 6 months in the last week only. I am waiting for 8 months now and you? Also do you know if EU spouse need to continue exercising rights, that is working, studying or living with sufficient resources?

Anyone please?

I am waiting to get my EU3 approved, it's been 8 months already and I am on temporary stamp 4 (not EUFAM). I will show the template once I get it. What about before the expiry of 10 years stamp?
