    You will have to fulfil the habitual residence condition. If you can convince them that Ireland is your main 'centre of interest'. If you are Irish born and bred then you shouldn't have much difficulty. If you are a non national it still may not be an issue, but may hinge on whether you have family in Ireland. If you have been here the past 5 years before u went to US then id say u might be ok
