Immigration - Irish citizen + NZ citizen marriage?

    Hey ��

    hoping someone can give me a little advice as the immigration website is incredibly confusing.

    I am Irish. My partner is from NZ and here, in Ireland, on a working holiday visa. This expires in November.

    We are getting married in Aug. Previous to this I have lived in NZ for 3 years and 2 years of this we were living together.

    My question is - according to the immigration website. All we need to do is bring the marriage cert and some other proof documents to immigration office.

    A. If you are a non visa required national who has entered the State legally within the last 90 days or if you are a visa required national and you are within the period of permission to remain granted to you on arrival in the State (except short stay ‘c’ visas):, or if you have current permission to remain in the State on an alternative basis both you and your Irish national spouse/civil partner should attend at your local Garda National Immigration Bureau Registration office with the following documentation:

    Your original marriage/civil partnership certificate
    Your original passport
    Your Irish spouse’s/civil partner’s original passport
    Evidence of your joint address


    Is this all we need?

    Is there a form we can pre-fill? Is there processing times?
    She currently has a contract with an auto-renewal pending her visa outcome. Basically a perm contract. She secured this off the back of a temp contract and they were happy to wait for her to sort visa post marriage.


    Any feedback is most welcome, thank you.
