1025 Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the position in relation to an application for family reunification and citizenship in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Dublin; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31565/08]
View answerI refer the Deputy to my previous answers to Parliamentary Questions in relation to this person. I am informed by the Immigration Division of my Department that a request was issued to the person referred to by the Deputy in July 2006 and again in February 2008 for birth certificates and passports in relation to her application for Family Reunification. A further request issued on 22 September 2008. The onus is on the applicant to provide this documentation in support of the Family Reunification application. The application will be further processed on receipt of this documentation. An application for naturalisation was also received in my Department from this person on 15 May 2008. In this regard I understand there has since been correspondence with the individual in relation to certain aspects of the application. The application will be further processed when a reply is received to this correspondence.
