British Citizen needs Immigration Lawyer to Help Bring Non-EU Spouse to Ireland

Post by Genzee2024 » Mon Jul 08, 2024 9:31 pm

Hi Everyone.

First time posting. I am a British Citizen moving to Ireland from UK on acceptance of a job offer. I need advice or contact of a good Immigration Lawyer please, to help with proper guidance on how to bring my non-EU Spouse from Africa to Ireland. Reason being they have had a few UK visitors visa applications refused, since they do not have any family or strong economic ties in Africa. Since myself and our child now live in UK. Also now with the increased UK spouse visa fees, it will take me very long to save. Since they live in a country with a really struggling economy, high unemployment and they depend on me financially. We got married in Africa, lived together and had our child before me moving to UK. I also have been going to see the spouse in Africa to maintain our marriage / relationship. However, I would rather engage expert immigration advice than make mistakes, or omit important things that can help our application convince the immigration officers when applying for the join family visa in Ireland.

Thank you in advance.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.

Just noticed the link you sent is for immigration advisers on moving to the UK. I am looking for immigration advice on moving to the Republic of Ireland

I dont think Ireland has a dedicated body that is specifically regulating immigration law; you'd have to explore it yourself.

Read the guide to get an understanding of whats expected of you: http://irishimmigration.ie/coming-to-jo ... ly-member/ . Keep in mind UK and Ireland share immigration data, so it may not be exactly smooth sailing.
Not a qualified immigration adviser. Use links and references given to gain confirmation and/or extra information.
