Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 15 September 2020
611. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice the process to be followed or appropriate section to be contacted in the case of a person (details supplied); the action that needs to be taken by the person in these circumstances; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [23934/20]
View answerThe person referred to by the Deputy has been granted Stamp 4 permission as the dependent of an EEA national and is not, therefore, required to submit a letter from their employer when renewing their permission.
The Immigration Service of my Department registers persons residing in the Dublin area only. The Garda National Immigration Bureau (GNIB) processes all applications outside of Dublin through the Garda Station network. Email addresses, for each registration office are provided, for queries and the arranging of appointments. Further information on the contact details for all the registration offices outside Dublin is available on: http://www.inis.gov.ie/en/INIS/Pages/registration-updates.
Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to 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 is, in the Deputy’s view, inadequate or too long awaited.
