Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 23 June 2022
396. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice further to Parliamentary Question No. 613 of 31 May 2022, if it may be possible for a specific appointment to be made in respect of a person (details supplied) to make arrangements to update their Stamp 4 and who have tried to do so unsuccessfully on several occasions; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [33554/22]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs previously advised to the Deputy, if a person is residing in the Dublin area and has an existing valid permission to be in the State, then they do not need to seek an appointment to renew their permission. Since 20 July 2020 all renewals for the Dublin area are being processed online at: inisonline.jahs.ie.
Since its introduction, more than 138,000 renewal applications have been completed. Customers can now apply up to 12 weeks in advance of their current permission’s expiration date and I have significantly increased staff capacity to process the applications on hand due to high demand.
Further information is available on my Department's immigration website at: www.irishimmigration.ie/registering-your-immigration-permission/how-to-renew-your-current-permission/registration-renewal-dublin/
If customers are experiencing any difficulties they can contact the Immigration Service Helpdesk at: immigrationsupport@justice.ie who will endeavour to assist them.
