Hi everyone,

My visa has finally been issued. Thank God, thank you Icasng and everyone for their inputs.

Please does anyone live in or around co. Laois? precisely Portlaoise or know anybody living there? I need help with securing accommodation urgently.

Thank you all.

Yes I agree. I hope you're right and that I get updates on my visa application soon.

By God’s grace it will end in praise.

Congratulations. Please can you help us with the date her application was forwarded to the embassy if it is recently.

Thank you

My wife's employment visa was processed in Abuja and it was for 6 weeks wait time

I don’t think that is the case. Your application is forwarded to the embassy nearest to you for a decision. Was it forwarded to Dublin or Abuja? Abuja embassy has specifically shown processing status for study visa category and does not mean that’s all they are treating at the moment. We all hope for the best. Hopefully we can relate more in the nearest future.

Yes my work permit is critical skills and I think the embassy in Abuja processing study visas only at the moment. That is what is stated on the website here (https://www.dfa.ie/irish-embassy/nigeria/our-services/visas/weeklydecisionreports).

I think all employment visas are processed in Dublin.

The website of visa application processing for a decision you have posted is for Dublin or am I mixing things up? Your employment permit that you hold is it under critical skills? Just a few questions for better clarification. Please somebody help...

Wow! If this is true then they have been lying to us. They claim they are already processing applications submitted on Sept 16, 2020 here (http://www.inis.gov.ie/en/INIS/Pages/Visa%20Decisions).

However, I submitted my application on July 29 and went for Biometric on August 17 and I am yet to get an update on my employment visa.

So you might be right, which is scary

Mahele:
Not to be the bringer of bad news but I submitted since 6th December last year...still waiting o. Learnt the visa team on that category are operating out of Dublin and they are still working on submissions from September of lat year.

Where did you make your submission? Is it Abuja embassy and what visa category is that? Is there a specific reason given to you that makes your visa decision to linger for this long? Please enlighten me.

Please has anybody who applied on the 26th of August received an approval yet? My application for employment visa and join family was forwarded on the 31st of August to the embassy of Abuja but I did biometrics and final submission of the 26th.
