4eufam stamp after divorce in marriage for less than a year

Post by Fly » Sun Jun 24, 2012 10:03 pm

I was wondering, if anyone could give me some info on stamp 4eufam in case of divorce.
I've read many articles and legal documents what could happen in this case, but it's very confusing and hard to understand such a documents. Need someone in simple wording to explain, how it can end up in our situation.
And situation is like this:
We are married for less than a year. Expecting baby soon. But if to file for divorce in another EU state, where the marriage was made, and get a divorce with joint custody of a child, meaning that partner will actively participate in baby's life and will pay maintenance to child, what happens here in Ireland for partner who is holding 4eufam stamp? We both live in Ireland now.
Will he be able to retain his status and stay in country, so he could work here, be by baby's side and support him?

You may not like hearing this, but that sort of situation would be strongly suspected of beng a sham marriage. It would be up to you to prove otherwise.

I think about 9 months ago, there was a case where the parties had been married for a long time, then got divorced, spent a lot of time and money and were successful in being allowed remain. However they had a very good solicitor.

So the short answer is yes it is possible. I am not saying yours was a sham marriage but you should be aware that even those who engage in sham marriages do not try to divorce after less than a year. They wait longer than that.

That's crazy... Thanks for answer anyway. I was told the same by my friend, that it might be considered like a sham...Even though it really wasn't... Just two people got married with a same dreams, really maybe even naively believing in those dreams together, but really not knowing much of each other. So all showed up after starting to live together - can't find common language about any small household problem...
Anyway, don't want to expand here with this problems of ours. Even if I realized that it's almost impossible to live together, but we both dreamed and planed baby, who is coming soon, so don't want him to loose contact with baby too...
One more little question. But if our baby will be irish born and will have Irish passport, he has no any rights to stay for baby to support him financially and so on....?
