    Hi,

    I am looking for any advice regarding my current situation. I am a non-EU citizen (Canadian) who is marrying my Dutch boyfriend this October. We have been residing together in Ireland for the last 1.5 years, me being on a temporary visa which is due to expire April 2016.

    I am wondering how complicated the process is for applying for an EU1 residency card, through EU treaty rights. How long does it typically take? I also don't see any fee mentioned? It seems straightforward enough on their website, but I'd love some first hand experience.

    Many thanks,

    Amanda

    It's usually very straight forward. There is no fee for EU to the best of my knowledge.

    No fee and it is very straightforward. They have to give a decision within 6 months and you'll get a Stamp 4 to cover the waiting period. Be aware that you do have to submit your original passports, but these will be returned to you within a few weeks.
