I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that there is no record of an application having been received for residency in the State arising from marriage to an Irish citizen in respect of the person concerned.

It is open to the person concerned to make a written application to the Spouse of Irish National Unit, Residence Division, INIS, 13-14 Burgh Quay, Dublin 2 seeking residency in the State arising from her marriage to an Irish national. Details of how to make the application can be found on the INIS website "www.inis.gov.ie" under Spouse of an Irish National.

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.
