Dáil Éireann Debate, Friday - 16 September 2016
1874. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation if and when a work permit will issue in the case of a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [25058/16]
View answerThe application for a new General Employment Permit referred to by the Deputy was acknowledged as received on 3rd February 2016, however, the application was subsequently rejected and the papers returned to the applicant as a result of failure to pay the applicable fee, despite this fee being requested on two occasions.
No further correspondence has been received by Employment Permits Section with regard to this application, however it is open to the applicant to reapply for an employment permit as appropriate.
The Deputy may wish to note that my Department has just recently commenced the roll out of the new online employment permits application service which will further improve the service and delivery times for all applicants.
