Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 29 March 2018
219. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if all outstanding documentation has been furnished by a person (details supplied); if their case for naturalisation and long-term residency will now be processed; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [14808/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the person concerned applied for renewal for a right of residency, accompanied by a right to work, based on their parentage of an Irish citizen child. The application was received in the relevant section of INIS on 8 March 2018. INIS has been in contact with the person concerned seeking further information and documentation on 23 March 2018.
No correspondence has been submitted to date in response to the request. The application will be considered further on receipt of all of the required documentation.
Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the INIS of 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 from the INIS is, in the Deputy’s view, inadequate or too long awaited.
