Hello guys,

Please I have a question as I couldn’t find a thread for general enquiries.

I live in the UK and I have received a job offer in Ireland, and the employer said they have applied for Critical Skilled work permit. I just want to know if anyone has recently applied for entry visa to Ireland from the UK and how long did it take for the entry visa to be approved? What documents are required and if I would need a copy of the work permit to apply for entry visa since I have employment letter. Also can the entry visa application be fast tracked?

Thanks all.

Hi. I got ission for Bsc Nursing which is four years program. My question is about the POF. The Irish immigration website states that I must have €10,000 for each year + Tuition fee which means €40,000 + Tuition. Has anyone gone through this stage. I need advice please. Thanks

If you are self-sponsoring yourself, YES you need to show proof of fees and living expenses for the 4 years. If you intend using a sponsor, they must show proof of income showing they earn enough to cover your tuition and living expenses for the whole duration of your course.

Perhaps you can come to China for tourism. Nowadays, China's industry, commerce, and environment are very good, and you can also find high-quality and cheap products.

I've been experiencing the same issue. I have tried both lagos and abuja but all to no avail. I think its an issue with their platform

Please you said your sister is waiting for her documents, is it that she has not received her port yet? And did she see her number on the list or a dispatch just called to give her her port?
