tomomurray1

Hello, I would like to know if anyone here knows exactly where to report an illegal immigrant in ireland?

I looked on the GNIB website but did not see any reference?

I would have thought that it would be Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) at Burgh Quay, Dublin 2. They won't be able to deport him/her immediately even if they do investigate the matter so I wouldn't hold your breath.

Edit Actually, on second thoughts, I think it is actually the GNIB...

Nothing on the GNIB website as far as I could see.. guess the local garda station might help

I thought ireland would have a border force type unit like the UK? Seems to be no clear way to report illegals say like the way one can report social welfare fraud online or over the phone...

Heres an article that was released recently which pretty much explains that whole episode : http://www.independent.ie/national-news/rape- claims-were-hurled-at-gardai-by- protesters-2800104.html

OP you need to contact your local GNIB office, they're usually based in the local District or Divisional HQ. You'll find numbers in the state section of the phone book.

Sorry, I know this is OT but that explains a lot. Doesn't excuse the conversation on tape but contextualises it a bit. As usual, the protesters only release the bit of tape that sensationalises things... :rolleyes:

I'm not getting into this on this thread. There's already plenty of threads on boards on this topic.I was simply responding to an outlandish comment from a poster, who now that I can see their post count is obviously a troll.

They didn't threaten anyone. They made a joke in private.

Has s/he done something to upset you?

All the OP said was what number do you use to report. At no stage did they say there was an illegal they were going to report.

unless you have a serious personal grudge, you have little to do with your time
try and live a positive life.

I would report. Its not knives in the back. There are plenty of genuine immigrants and asylum seekers who are going through the correct process to stay in this country. This is how it should be done. Illegals are beyond the law and not accountable. So if they are working in the black economy they are not paying taxes and are taking a job from someone who has a right to work here. If they commit a crime they will be harder to detect and brought to book. What if they are murders or sex offenders or drug dealers ?? We have enough of our own criminal element without importing more, especially ones who are next to impossible to detect.

Yes but unless they're here legally their prints won't be on record, every immigrant and refugee who comes into the country from outside the EU, and through the proper channels has their fingerprints taken.

Those that don't go through proper channels, don't.

Every asylum seeker who comes into Ireland has their fingerprints taken and checked against the EURODAC database, to ensure that they have not made an asylum application in another country. Immigrants who come in on any other basis, do not have their fingerprints taken as a general rule so the question of fingerprints is irrelevant.

A database of fingerprints for all immigrants is a short step away from a database of fingerprits for all. I don't think I'd be too keen on that.

He asked for a number, not anything else.

Who mentioned fingerprints? There are many other ways to solve crimes, made much more difficult by someone living under a false identity or off the grid completely.

tomomurray1

This person is NOT a student, they run a business and have overstayed their visa.

Thanks for the replies all I wanted was contact information not to be judged.

If you live in Dublin you can call GNIB on 01 666 9130. If you live in the country contact the immigration officer at the local Garda District or Divisional headquarters.

Thanks Sean, I will do that on Monday.
