The Employment Permits Section of my Department informs me that an application for a general employment permit for this person was received on 27th May 2024. On 29th May 2024 the application was formally accepted and placed in the processing queue.
Applications for employment permits are dealt with in date order. As of 18th June 2024, the Employment Permits Section are processing new applications in respect of standard employers which were received on 7th May 2024. Therefore, it is expected that the application concerned will be considered shortly.
