I understand that the person in question submitted the passports to the Immigration Division of my Department in support of their family for family re-unification. When some discrepancies came to light, these passports were forwarded to the Garda National Immigration Bureau for investigation. The person concerned and her husband have failed to account for these discrepancies and the Garda National Immigration Bureau maintains possession of the passports.
