The application in question was received by the Irish Embassy in Kuala Lumpur in early February and was referred to the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform on 9 February for decision. The embassy has been informed that the application was refused and will notify this decision immediately to the applicant. Visa refusals may be appealed within two months by writing to the visa appeals officer at Visa Section, Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform, 13/14 Burgh Quay, Dublin 2. Further information or additional documentation which the applicant wishes to have taken into account should be included with the letter and the visa reference number should be quoted. There is no charge for an appeal against the refusal of a visa. Appeal decisions are usually taken between four and six weeks after the date of the receipt of the appeal.
