I can inform the Deputy that the applicant concerned has been granted permission to remain in the State as a de facto Partner of an Irish citizen, which is a fee-paying category for the purposes of immigration permission renewal, and they selected the incorrect fee category on their initial application.
The applicant cited will need to submit a new online renewal application and select the following fee paying category: “None of the above, including de facto and adult dependant of an Irish child.”
Once all of the required documents have been submitted, they will be brought to the payment page to pay the required fee.
If the applicant has any queries relating to their immigration permission or renewal, they can contact the registration office using my Departments Customer Service Portal. The Customer Service Portal can be accessed at the following link: https://portal.irishimmigration.ie/en/.
Details on how to submit a query to the registration office can be found at the following link: www.irishimmigration.ie/registering-your-immigration-permission/submitting-registration-or-renewal-queries/.
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.
