An application for residence in the State on the sole basis of marriage to an Irish national was received from the person in question in May 2007 and was acknowledged on 6 June 2007. Applications of this kind, in fairness to all other such applicants, are dealt with in strict chronological order and currently processed within twelve months. It should be noted that marriage to an Irish national does not confer an automatic right of residence in the State.
