The immigration case of the person referred to by the Deputy is impacted by the European Court of Justice (ECJ) judgment in the Chenchooliah case.

My Department has, this week, issued the person concerned with a short-term permission on Stamp 1 conditions, which allows them to work without the need for an employment permit. Their longer-term position in the State is expected to be decided on within the period of the short-term permission granted. If this is not possible, the permission will be extended for a further period, on similar conditions, subject to compliance with the original conditions of the short-term permission.  

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 (inisoireachtasmail@justice.ie), 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.
