The Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service of my Department is currently finalising the application form, including information in relation to required documents and expects to publish this application form shortly. My Department remains committed to making a final decision on all applications, in respect of students who were granted a Two Year Student Probationary Extension during the period 28 August 2012 to 26 February 2013, by 31 March 2015. In the interim period, I understand that non-EEA students resident on Stamp 2 under the terms of the Student Probationary Extension have been granted temporary Stamp 4 conditions for a period of six months. This temporary permission is entirely without prejudice to their application which non-EEA students will be able to submit in the coming weeks.
