Hello !
If someone could clarify this for us, it would be great.
My wife is a British and Australian Citizen and i'm an Australian Citizen. We just phoned the immigration in ireland to confirm on what the requirements for UK Citizens will be if they want to work in Ireland. They are saying my wife needs a 1 year Job offer, only then i will get a spouse visa rather only then i can apply for a spouse visa...I believe it takes 8 to 10 weeks to get a spouse visa. Also i believe we have to apply for this spouse in Australia before we get to ireland. Is this true???
Also, can i apply for a spouse visa once i arrive in Ireland?? As an Australian citizen i don't need a visa to visit ireland. I heard stories of people from countries who don't need a visa to visit ireland can accompany the wife or husband and apply for spouse visa in ireland.. As long as they inform the Immigration Officer at the Border and explain the situation and also bring all the necessary paperwork along.
Is this true too??
Any assistance in this matter will be much appreciated.
Thank you
Regards
