As a person who was accepted as being a family member of an EU citizen who was exercising EU Treaty Rights in the State, the immigration case of the person concerned falls within the parameters of the European Court of Justice Ruling in the Chenchooliah case. In light of that situation, the notification issued to the person concerned by letter dated 20 November 2018, has recently been withdrawn.
Their case is under active consideration by the Immigration Service of my Department and they can expect to hear from them within the coming weeks.
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.
