I am pleased to inform the Deputy that a letter issued, dated 01 December 2023, granting the person concerned, as an exceptional measure, an extension of their visitor permission on Stamp 3 conditions until 16 March 2024.

The person concerned should make arrangements to register this permission with their local registration office as soon as possible, if they have not already done so.

Detailed information on how to register an immigration permission is available on the Immigration Service website at Registering your immigration permission - Immigration Service Delivery (irishimmigration.ie)

Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to my Department by email using the Oireachtas Mail facility at 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 Question process.

The Deputy may consider using the email service except in the cases where the response is, in the Deputy's view, inadequate or too long awaited.
