Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 November 2023
403. Deputy Dara Calleary asked the Minister for Justice when strand 4 endowment applications for the Immigrant Investment Programme will be processed; if she will outline the projected timeframes for processing of application under this strand; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [51903/23]
View answerAs the Deputy will be aware, the Government agreed to close the Immigrant Investor Programme (IIP) to further applications from 15 February 2023.
The IIP Unit has published an FAQ document concerning the closure of the programme on my Department's Immigration Services website, which will be updated with any further questions arising from the closure, and is available here: www.irishimmigration.ie/faqs-closure-of-the-immigrant-investor-programme-iip/
Due to the exceptionally large number of applications on hand it is not possible to give a timeframe as to when applications will receive a decision, however, I can confirm that all applications will be considered on their own merits and my Department will endeavour to make decisions in a timely manner.
