The person referred to by the Deputy submitted an application for a EU1 - Residence card with the EU Treaty Rights section of the Immigration Service of my Department on 27 November 2020.
Processing of this application is ongoing at present. As each application is examined on its own merits, it is not possible to give an exact timeframe for completion. However, the applicant can be assured that there will be no avoidable delay in finalising the application.
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.
