I am advised that the persons referred to by the Deputy submitted applications for a change of immigration status which were received by the Domestic Residence and Permissions Division of my Department on 28 February 2024.

Applications are dealt with in strict chronological order of receipt. The Division endeavours to process applications as quickly as possible, however, processing times may vary due to a number of factors, such as the number of applications on hand, individual circumstances, the complexity of an application and whether or not further information is required.

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 IMoireachtasmail@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 cases where the response is, in the Deputy's view, inadequate or too long awaited.
