I wish to advise the Deputy that this Spousal/Dependant Permit application was refused on the 14th March 2012 on the grounds that it appeared that the proposed employee had already been working in the company without having a valid employment permit. Furthermore, additional information requested from the applicant had not been provided and there appeared to be a discrepancy in the information provided in relation to the numbers of EEA and non-EEA nationals currently employed.

An appeal in respect of this decision was received in the Employment Permits Section on the 5th April 2012. The Appeals Officer is currently examining appeals received on the 2nd April 2012 and this appeal will be examined in sequence.
