The person referred to by the Deputy was granted a five-year residence card on 4 April 2016, valid to 3 April 2021. As noted in the approval letter issued at the time, the person was advised when applying for a Permanent Residence Card at the end of the five-year period, to submit an application six months before the expiry date of the Residence Card. To date, no application for a Permanent Residence Card has been received by the EU Treaty Rights Division of my Department.
The EU Treaty Rights Division received a letter from the person referred to on 30 August 2019, which was acknowledged by my Department on 9 September 2019.
It is open to the person referred to by the Deputy to submit an application for a Permanent Residence Card. This can be applied for by completing and submitting Form EU3 by registered post to the EU Treaty Rights Division of my Department.
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 (inisoireachtasmail@justice.ie), 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.
