Confused about student permission in Ireland

[fredthedeve]

Context: Hi, I'm an international student in Ireland. I got a student permission for one year to do a level 7 degree in a course. However, I changed my mind and decided to move from the third year to the fourth year and do a level 8 degree in the same course. I emailed the local GNIB office in Limerick twice, but they did not give me a clear answer. I'm still confused and worried about this issue. Do I need to apply for a modification or a renewal of my student permission? Has anyone been in a similar situation or knows how to deal with this? I would appreciate any advice or guidance. Thank you.

You do need to contact ISD in order to sort this out - if they see it as Level 7 on their system and that's what you achieved, it might be a discrepancy.

My suggestion would be to send a physical letter to ISD student permission department - I got a response pretty quick from them.
