With the increase of investment and the cutting of various immigration methods, Irish immigrants have become more intense, the number of applicants has increased, and the approval time has also become longer. The more interested applicants, the earlier the application, the greater the advantage.
Applicants who have successfully obtained Irish immigration status will be granted a 2-year residence visa for the first time and will be renewed to a 3-year residence visa after 2 years. After this visa expires, you can apply for naturalization or renew your 5-year residence visa again, that is, the visa exchange mode is 2+3+5+5+. If the applicant meets the naturalization requirements, he can choose naturalization. Although it is impossible to obtain permanent residence in one step, compared with other European immigrant countries, the requirements for changing residence cards or applying are relatively relaxed. Irish immigration supervision is also very loose, that is, landing once a year is enough, and the conditions are very loose.
Irish immigrant applicants enjoy basically the same welfare benefits as local residents, including free public medical care, education and social benefits such as children and women, and enjoy more generous welfare benefits after naturalization.
For applicants who choose to apply for Irish immigration for their children's education, this choice is definitely worthwhile. Ireland's education system mainly includes 8-year primary education, 3-year junior high school education, 2-3-year high school education and university education or continuing education colleges. Irish primary and secondary schools are divided into private schools and public schools. Public schools are free, but private schools have to pay a certain fee. Children can enjoy free education in public schools as long as they have permanent Irish status. The advantage of Irish permanent identity is that you can enjoy the same educational benefits as Irish natives.
