Written answers
The Employment Permits Section of the Department informs me that the applications concerned have been returned to the applicant, together with a full refund of the application fee, as the documentation submitted did not comply with the legislative requirements.
It is important to note that an application for an employment permit can only be submitted when the Labour Market Needs Test has been completed and the application must be submitted within 90 days of the commencement of the advertisement on Jobs Ireland/EURES. In this case, the applications concerned were submitted outside the 90 day timeframe.
Any future applications made by the company must adhere to the requirements of the LMNT and the relevant minimum salary thresholds will apply.
