Has anyone applying from Abu Dhabi specifically received their Irish employment visa recently? I submitted my application at the VFS center in late 2025 for a tech role in Dublin.
- Timeline Accuracy: The embassy site still claims 8 weeks, but I am actually hearing rumors of it taking 12 to 14 weeks. Do they currently meet the stated deadline?
- Friction Points: Has anyone faced rejections or delays due to providing bank statements from digital-only banks? I want to know if they find reasons to reject these formats before I wait three months.
Would love to hear real experiences before I extend my current lease here in the UAE.
