Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 18 July 2013
570. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he will examine the possibility of extending stamp 2 to stamp 4 residency status in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [36694/13]
View answerI am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) that the person in question has not made an application to INIS to change his immigration status in the State. This person should be advised to do so immediately to enable this request to be examined.
Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to INIS by e-mail using Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. This services enables up to date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek information by way of the Parliamentary Questions process.The Deputy may consider using the e-mail service except in cases where the response from INIS is, in the Deputy's view, inadequate or too long awaited.
