I am informed that the person concerned has recently contacted her local immigration office. The immigration officer explained to her the periods of her residency in the State which are considered reckonable with regard to her child's application for Irish citizenship. I should remind the Deputy that queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made direct to INIS by email using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. The service enables up-to-date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek this information through the more administratively expensive Parliamentary Questions process.
