Will My Partner Need A Visa
Hello my partner and I are relocating to Ireland.My partner and I are in a De Facto Relationship and have been together for 6 years (November 28th 2012) and have been living together for 2 years and 2 months.My partner is a South African Citizen and I am a British Citizen.I know South Africans do not need a visa to visit Ireland but will she need a Visa to apply for a Irish Residence Permit?

Thank you for your reply BIP,
Now what is confusing me is the application process for a IRP(Irish Residency Permit) takes up to 6 months to be approved.
Will my partner have to leave before the application is approved/denied?
or can i get an Extension.

Once she has lodged her EU1 application she’ll be granted permission to stay until a decision has been made and she should receive a letter to that effect.
