The registered postal items referred to by the Deputy were received in my Department on 9th January, 2008. However, as the documentation submitted was not sufficient an additional request was issued on 2nd May, 2008.

The first person concerned is required to submit proof of residency in the State from 2003 until August 2007 and two passport size photographs. The second person concerned is required to submit proof of residency in the State from 2003 to September 2006 and also from June 2007 to the present day. On receipt of the requested documentation the applications will be considered further.
