The person referred to by the Deputy arrived in the State on 02 March 2024 on foot of a Long Stay Join Family Visa and currently holds a Stamp 3 immigration permission valid until 29 April 2025.
Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to my Department by email using the Oireachtas Mail facility at IMoireachtasmail@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 Question process. The Deputy may consider using the email service except in cases where the response is, in the Deputy's view, inadequate or too long awaited.
