Remote work
I am a Canadian working for a European company who has a branch office in Canada that I am currently working for. The position I have is not location dependent, as I can work anywhere that has an internet connection - I am wondering would I be able to live in Ireland? I wouldn't need an Irish visa/work permit as I would still be getting paid as if I was living in Canada.
Would I have to leave the country every 90 days? What are my options if I don't want to do this, if any.

Re: Remote work
You would still need a visa to live and work in the RoI as a Canadian citizen even if you were working remotely. Do you have any recent British, Irish or other European ancestry? A European-born parent, grandparent or great-grandparent?

No, unfortunately, I don't at this point the only visa I would qualify for would be a work visa for sales professionals, or the working holiday visa that is open to Canadian residents aged 18-35.
