Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 14 June 2022
1281. Deputy Jennifer Carroll MacNeill asked the Minister for Justice if support will be provided for an application for a change of residency permission by persons (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [28854/22]
Amharc ar fhreagraA change of status application was received from the person referred to by the Deputy on 16 March 2022 and continues to be processed by my Department.
To be fair to all applicants, applications are dealt with in chronological order by date received. My Department endeavours to process applications as quickly as possible. However, processing times may vary due to a number of factors, such as the number of applications on hands, individual circumstances, the complexity of applications, whether further information is required, and the resources available.
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.
