You are by law required to inform INIS of any permanent change of address. I accept that this is a Section 9 requirement, but my reading of that provision is that it applies to people who are within the jurisdiction of the state. The state cannot control people who are not within its jurisdiction. ...

Things are really tough for Ukrainians and I hope they get to safety. However one must not lose sight to the plight of poor African and Asian students, who simply went to Ukraine to get a better and cheaper education. Their plight and present treatment by unpleasant border guards must not be forgott...

What the UK government says in press statement and to its media, is different from what the do in practice. I think Ukrainians are best advised to go to Ireland, where they will be better received. I have been trying to get through the UK embassy, to assist families in Ukraine. I have been on the ph...

The government is in a mess, keep changing their policies to show they can match the EU. They are not acting in good faith. I cannot keep up with their flip flopping. It is clear they do not want Ukrainians in, but they are being shamed into adopting this policy. They are now saying extended family ...

As the refusal indicated family registration is very different from birth certificate, which you are required to provide. When doing an application, you need both or a Birth certificate.

Even without Borris Johnson meaningless proposal, you could bring in your parents, if they are dependent on you, that fact has really not changed.

If there is a delay, the option may be available to fly them to Ireland and then apply for them to enter the UK.

I had some Bangladeshi who faced similar issues.

As advised, applying for EU settlement scheme permit is the best option.

We should be grateful that some regions are doing things properly.

Some Garda officers simply do not take instructions, some like Navan and Cavan are nice but they do not always take instructions, i must emphasise that I do not think they act in bad faith. However I am unable to say the same for Garda Catherine at Kildare, she always act in bad faith, and try to pu...

Registration office have started stamping passport again. I am aware of some local division that have resumed stamping. For renewals or new applicants? They are not asking Dublin renewal applicants to send their passports away, so there is no way they can stamp them (unless they restarted asking pe...

Such a request appears unlawful if you got the permit pre 30-06-2021.

Get the refusal and file a late notice of appeal.

The tribunal will grant you permission to proceed.

I believe the time you left Ireland, relates to when you got your citizenship and left.

I do not believe that period that predates citizenship are relevant

On what basis was your permission granted?

The law is that in the last 4 years prior to naturalisation, you should have a total of 3 years residence in the state. The final year should be contiuous residence. But you are then allowed to chose any 2 years in the 4 years preceding the naturalisation application. You certainly cannot choose 201...

The years do not need to be continuous. Do you mean he can use: Bank statement dated in 2011 Bank statement dated 2014 Bank statement dated 2020 Is that correct? I did not say that at all, the OP never gave those dates. If he had given those dates, he would not have received that response from me.

The years do not need to be continuous.

I agree with Raja, that EU 1 for joining family members, but you cannot renew it. You go for PR after you complete the period. If the British citizen ends exercising treaty rights before 5 year, then a British person cannot re-establish rights under the agreement.

That letter should have also come with an appeal right aswell. Did it?

The decision is clearly wrong and you ought to challenge it, on the basis that it is not in accordance with the law.

I can see that this is one of the beneficial reasons for the regional office, as this problem only applies to Dublin people.

You are not the only one experiencing problems with Cork. I know 3 people with same problem, when complaint was made, they were told it was unnecessary, as the minister has extended visas till may, really cant understand this care free approach. People on ten years, should just consider citizenship....

The fact a person has a temporary stamp 4, does not prevent them from getting a visa consistent with the validity of their passport. I remember applying for a close relative of mine who was a month in her 6 month temporary stamp 4, when the minister approved her residence card application. She recei...

In Cork there is a serious problem with appointment, but Meath and Cavan, they are pretty quick. The appointment is a different matter from the wrong date on card, which is a problem associated with Dublin applicant. The validity of the card is consistent with passport validity, but for kids, this i...
