I have been informed by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service of my Department that the person concerned was approved for a Residence Card as a family member of an EU Citizen on 30 November 2011.
The Residence Card of the person concerned was subsequently revoked on 18 October 2016 as the EU Citizen had not resided in the State nor exercised rights in the State since 2014.
The person concerned requested a review of that decision on 08 November 2016 and this application is currently being processed. This review will be considered in due course.
Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the INIS of my Department 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. The Deputy may consider using the e-mail service except in cases where the response from the INIS is, in the Deputy’s view, inadequate or too long awaited.
