Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 20 October 2015
408. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the current status in the eligibility for residency and naturalisation of a person (details supplied) in County Kildare whose original application was submitted as part of an application for renewal of stamp 4, and who has made an application to remain based on parenthood of an Irish born child; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [36055/15]
View answerI am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that it wrote to the person concerned on 14 July, 2015 in connection with a passport submitted in support of the application. The passport has been forwarded to an outside agency for examination and verification and I am advised that INIS will be in contact with the person again as soon as a report is available.
The Deputy will be aware that queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the INIS by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. This service enables up-to-date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek information by way of the Parliamentary Questions process.
