The person referred to by the Deputy has permission to remain in the State, on immigration Stamp 1 conditions, without a requirement to obtain an employment permit, up to 20 April 2021. This is as a result of the temporary extensions of permissions that I and my predecessor have announced due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The automatic extension of permission is on the same basis as the existing permission and the same conditions attach.
The person concerned has also lodged a formal application for renewal of permission to remain and this application will be processed to completion in due course.
Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to 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 is, in the Deputy’s view, inadequate or too long awaited.
