I can advise the Deputy that the person referred to is the subject of a Deportation Order (DO) and it is open to any individual to make representations under Section 3(11) of the Immigration Act 1999, as amended, requesting to have their deportation order revoked.

The applicant may complete form 3.11 to ask the Minister to consider revoking their deportation order, pursuant to the provisions of section 3(11) of the Immigration Act 1999 (as amended).

All representations and documentation submitted on this form should set out any new or changed circumstances that were not previously presented to the Minister. They must also complete a criminal declaration form. Both forms and further details are available at the following link:

.

Both forms must be sent either by email to or by post to

Repatriation Division,Immigration Service,Department of Justice,13-14 Burgh Quay,Dublin 2,D02 XK70Ireland.

Once their application is processed, they will be informed of the outcome of their request. The outcome of that request will be that the existing deportation order will either be 'affirmed' or 'revoked'.

If their application is successful, they will receive a letter stating that their deportation order has been revoked along with a copy of the revocation order. If they are currently residing in the State and do not hold an alternative immigration permission, they will also receive a letter granting them permission to reside in the State.

In the meantime they remain legally obliged to comply with any reporting requirements placed on them by the Garda National Immigration Bureau.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 at: IMoireachtasmail@justice.ie, which has been specifically established for this purpose.
