I have been informed by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the person concerned entered the State on 4 May 2009 and was registered as a student on Stamp 2 conditions between 20 May 2009 and 30 September 2013. It is noted that the person concerned has not had permission to remain in the State since that date.

On 17 August 2015, the person concerned made an application for permission to remain in the State. This application is under consideration at the present time, and the Residence Division of INIS will be in contact with the person concerned in due course.

The Deputy may wish to note that queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to 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 INIS is, in the Deputy's view, inadequate or too long awaited.
