I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the visa application referred to was refused by the Visa Office in Dublin and the decision communicated to the applicant on 22 March 2017. The applicant was advised that an appeal could be submitted within two months of the date of the visa refusal. No appeal has been submitted as yet. If an appeal is to be made, the applicant should bear in mind the refusal reasons set out in the decision and be in a position to fully address them.

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.
