I am informed by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service that the persons named by the Deputy made an application to General Immigration on 4 September 2012 seeking to change their immigration status to enable them to receive a Stamp 4. Correspondence recently issued to the persons concerned and a decision will be made on their case when the requested documentation is received.

Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the INIS by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. This service enables up to date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek information by way of the Parliamentary Questions process. The Deputy may consider using the e-mail service except in cases where the response from the INIS is, in the Deputy’s view, inadequate or too long awaited.
