📢 IMPORTANT UPDATE – FAMILY REUNIFICATION IN IRELAND

The Irish Government has introduced new financial requirements for Irish citizens sponsoring a spouse, civil partner, or de facto partner under Category A of the Family Reunification Policy.

From 12 June 2026, Irish sponsors must demonstrate gross earnings of at least €75,000 over the previous 3 years, replacing the previous €40,000 requirement.

Key points:

✅ Gross earnings of at least €75,000 over the previous 3 years

✅ Applies to spouses, civil partners, and de facto partners of Irish citizens

✅ Only the Irish sponsor’s income is considered

✅ The sponsor must not have been mainly reliant on State supports from the Irish State for a continuous period of two years or longer immediately prior to the application

✅ Applies to applications received on or after 12 June 2026

✅ Supporting financial evidence must be provided

If you’re planning a family reunification application, it’s important to understand how these changes may affect your eligibility.
