Hello, Thank you for your helpful reply. 12 months? Sadly, we don’t have the funds for that and it is out of the question for us to be separated for that long. But thank you again, I will look into it for sure. Kind regards, You don't have to be separated, you can come together to Ireland, if you a...

Here is the website for EU 1 application.

You will be find, don't give up your dream.

I think is quicker that you move down here and apply for EU 1, if your husband is a visa required citizen, all you need is to bring your marriage/civil partner certificate, then he should be no no problem boarding the plane together with you. Nowadays, EU 1 takes more than 12 month in general but if...

You need to share your wife's story otherwise, so we can help you with the correct advice

So it sounds like you would have to wait till the 6 months before the expiry anyway. I would definitely consider EU3 over WCATT. Btw, my understanding is that if you have been living in Ireland with the same EU spouse for 5 years, you should be able to apply for EU3. You shouldn't have to wait till...

I guess Stamp 5 and 6 section is idle these days lol They replied my email in 10 mins So for anyone who has the same query, below is the answer: Please be advised that this Office is currently accepting applications prior to the final 6 months. Once you meet all the qualifying criteria, and have com...

WCATT is not something that many people have applied before, so the best option is to email them to confirm this. I would strongly advise against getting a WCATT if you are on 4EUFAM and that you have already been approved for EU3 (permanent residency). Some notable differences between EU3 and WCAT...

Dear all, I hope you all keeping well. I have a query regarding when can I apply for Stamp 5 I wonder can someone help. I am currently Stamp 4 EU FAM holder (not PR), and soon will reach 8 years and plan to apply for Stamp 5. I read their FAQs online: http://www.inis.gov.ie/en/INIS/FAQ%20Without%20c...

You need to inform the INIS as this is required. I don't think this would negatively impact your citizenship as long as your claimed 5 years were legit and you keep your visa running until you get approval. I am not an expert on stamp 2, I think you will lose your visa after divorce, how many years ...

Hi All, Need some feedback on the below scenario, whether I should contact the department or not. I have been a resident of Ireland since 2013. I launched my naturalization application as a NON-EU national with STAMP-4 in Jan 2020. In the Residency calculation, I put all my stamps dating from 2013 ...

I'm with Paddy on the court process. I wish I knew about it before - the process leading up to taking it to court takes time (get an FOI, Find a lawyer, lawyer sends threatening letters to INIS, Set court date, wait for a decision etc). Why do you advise people to go via JR after waiting for 2+ yea...

Inis have this document on their site. But its from 2018. Look like they haven't release the numbers for 2019 and 2020.

If you followed correct procedure they won't reject your request. You will get an email with your file in PDF format. You have a right to obtain a copy of the record they have about you.

Agree, I haven't heard anybody at least on the forum who have said that they got refused for FOI.

But really for people who applied 16-17 as the subject suggested, is really painful... be empathetic. You could have only imagined how annoying it was if you were on their boat waiting for more than 5 years for a result. I agree with you on that one. It is disappointing when you have to wait for to...

Hi guys I applied for FOI on Friday and I got ref number today ..and it takes 4 to 5 weeks ..and they say they might refuse my FOI record request ..

Why they may refuse the request?

Its not an exception, its a norm for many applicants of Asian origin. I am an Asian woman of Vietnamese descent. The fact that I am a dual Russian-American citizen doesn't make me any less Asian. Ireland is the most welcoming country I have ever lived in. No body doubts Ireland is a welcoming count...
