Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 11 October 2018
82. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the extent to which a stamp 4 work permit may be made available in the case of a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [41700/18]
View answerI am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that it has no record of a request from the person concerned for permission to reside in the State on Stamp 4 conditions. I am further advised that correspondence issued to the individual's legal representative on 28 August, 2018, granting the person concerned permission to reside in the State under Stamp 3 conditions for one year.
It is open to the person concerned may write Unit 2, Domestic Residence and Permissions Division, INIS, 13/14 Burgh Quay, Dublin 2 in relation to a request for permission to reside in this State on Stamp 4 conditions. Any such request will be given detailed consideration by INIS upon receipt of the relevant information and documentary evidence from the individual concerned.
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.
