I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the person referred to by the Deputy married an Irish National in January 2017 and in March 2017 made an application to INIS for permission to remain in the State, as the spouse of an Irish National.

I understand that a request for documentation issued to the person concerned on 09 October 2017 and INIS are currently awaiting a response.

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.
