Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 9 April 2024
885. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice the progress to date in the determination of an extension of status/visa in the case of a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [14426/24]
View answerAn application for an extension of work permit conditions from the person referred to by the Deputy was received by the Domestic Residence and Permissions Division of my Department on 11 October 2023.
Applications are dealt with in strict chronological order. While every effort is made to process applications as soon as possible, processing times will vary having regard to the volume and complexity of applications, the possible need for the Immigration Service of my Department to investigate, inquire into, or seek further information, and the resources available.
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.
