Stuck, in limbo, or worried sick about your status?

When an application sits for months, a permit is tied to your job, or a card has expired, it can feel like your whole life is on hold, with no real person to talk to. There is one here. We're an established Dublin firm and we'll tell you honestly where you stand, what we can do, and what it costs.

IRP expiring, or already expired?

Your card's run out and your employer is asking questions. We file your renewal correctly and on time, and give you proof-of-application letters to protect your job while you wait.

  • Filed before expiry, so you avoid the costly “applied after expiry” mistake.
  • Escalation, including judicial review, where a delay is unreasonable.

A qualified solicitor will answer your call.

Renewals are taking far longer than the old 6-week target. Apply up to 12 weeks before expiry to protect your right to work and travel.

Citizenship, permits, family and visas.

Since 12 June 2026, an Irish-citizen sponsor must show €75,000 gross income over the previous 3 years (€25,000 per year), above State benefits. We check that figure with you before you apply.

Got a refusal, or a deadline coming up?

If a refusal letter has arrived or a deadline is looming, the sooner we see it, the more we can do. Talk to us today, because for some applications the time to act is short.

Since 1 June 2026, most short-stay (Type C) visa refusals, including tourism, business or family visits and short courses, can no longer be appealed; you must submit a fresh application. There's no second chance, so the first application has to be right. (Family members covered by the EU Free Movement Directive keep their right of appeal.)

An established Dublin firm that actually answers the phone.

We've helped people make Ireland home since 2004. No judgement, whatever your situation.

  • Fixed fees agreed in writing before any work starts, with no surprise bills.
  • We deal with ISD and the permit system every working day, so you are not explaining your own case to us.

A refused application costs more than the fee: the waiting time, the right to travel, and sometimes the job the permission was tied to. We make sure it's right the first time.
