Hi all, could anyone help clarify the position with regard to UK nationals who were exercising EU Treaty rights in Ireland prior to Brexit but have married after the transition period?
I know generally UK nationals who were exercising Treaty rights here before the end of the transition period retain the Directive rights of EU nationals, but reading Regulation 3(1) of the Withdrawal Regs and Article 10(1)(e) of the Withdrawal Agreement it looks to me like this doesn't apply where the marriage took place after the end of the transition period.
However on the Department's web page for family members of UK nationals who can't avail of Treaty rights, it says that the post-Brexit scheme "only applies when a UK national has come to live in Ireland after 31 December 2020."
Has anyone had a case of this type?
Hi Rebecca, You should receive an auto acknowledgement for every email sent to this email address.
I have received a few substantive responses via this email address, and also have received postal replies that have been prompted by correspondence to this email address. Not all correspondence I have sent to this email address has been responded to.
I would have similar experience with postal correspondence to ISD, some of it is replied to and some is not.
As the email address is very new I feel it is probably best to duplicate the correspondence by post if you have any concerns about it being received.
