I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the person concerned was granted permission to remain in the State in August, 2007 for an initial three year period, valid to 14th August, 2010. This permission to remain was renewed for a further three year period in August, 2010, valid to 14th August, 2013.

The renewal decision letter referred to advised the person concerned of the requirement that they apply for further renewal of their permission to remain one month before their existing permission expired. Given that there is no record of any such renewal application having been lodged to date, it is recommended that the person concerned would proceed to do so without further delay.

Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the INIS of my Department 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.

I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the person concerned was granted permission to remain in the State on 24th January, 2006, on student conditions, for the period to 24th January, 2007. There is no record of the person concerned having sought to renew that permission.

In the event that the person concerned wishes to apply for a further permission to remain, they will need to apply in writing to the INIS setting out the basis for their application as well as an explanation as to where they have resided in the period since their earlier permission to remain expired. Any such application will need to be supported by documentary evidence. Any application made will be considered on its merits.
