Application processing times for Extension to Work Permit Conditions can fluctuate depending on the volume of applications received to the Domestic Residence and Permissions Division of the Immigration Service. Currently, applications are taking approximately 3 months to process.

As the Deputy will be aware, in order to work in Ireland a non-EEA national must have an employment permit granted by the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment or a permission granted by the Minister for Justice that permits employment.
