I can advise the Deputy that the person cited was granted an immigration permission through the Regularisation of Long Term Undocumented Migrants Scheme on 5 July 2022, and this permission expired on 4 July 2024.

Due to the length of time that this individuals immigration permission has expired, they are required to register again in-person.

All first-time registrations nationwide are being handled at the Burgh Quay Registration Office in Dublin. The person cited will need to book an appointment using the Digital Contact Centre (DCC). The appointment system on the DCC is the only means of securing an appointment. With the DCC, customers can select and book appointment slots to register for the first time. They can also reschedule or cancel if necessary.

When attending their registration appointment, the person concerned should bring the permission letter from the Domestic Residence and Permissions Division regarding their grant under the Long-Term Undocumented Migrants Scheme.

I can further advise the Deputy that my Department has previously provided guidance to the person cited in relation to registering their permission as they do not hold a national passport.

Further information on the registration process and required documents for registration are outlined on my Department's Immigration Service website at the following link: www.irishimmigration.ie/registering-your-immigration-permission/.

As an Oireachtas member, you can also request the status of individual immigration cases by e-mail, 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.
