An application for residence in the State on the basis of marriage to an Irish national was received from the person in question in January 2007. An acknowledgement of receipt of the application was issued on 1 February 2007.
Applications of this kind, in fairness to all other such applicants, are dealt with in strict chronological order and currently take approximately twelve months to process. It should be noted that marriage to an Irish national does not confer an automatic right of residence in the State.
