In general, non-Irish nationals are entitled to seek housing support from a housing authority on the same basis as an Irish citizen if they have established a legal right to remain in the State on a long-term basis or have acquired the right of permanent residence. Such persons would generally have a Stamp 4 designation on their passports or Garda Registration Cards, although not all persons with such a stamp designation are entitled to seek housing support from a housing authority.
