I am not aware of any problems in processing applications for study visas as referred to by the Deputy. It is difficult to know specifically which countries the Deputy has in mind based on the information provided in the question. However, I can assure the Deputy that each visa application received by my Department is assessed on an individual basis and on its own merits no matter where in the world the application is submitted and no matter which country the applicant comes from.

Detailed information and the documentation necessary for consideration of this type of application is provided on the website of the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (www.inis.gov.ie). Compliance with all the necessary requirements should normally result in a visa being granted to the prospective student.
