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 for an initial one year period, valid to 23rd January, 2016. This permission may be extended by a further two years, to 23rd January, 2018, by the local Immigration Registration Office on production by the person concerned of a valid passport to attest to their identity and nationality. This decision was communicated to the person concerned by letter dated 23rd January, 2015.

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.
