another bummer:
"Please note applicants must be eligible to live and work in Ireland."
- snowy909 16y agojesus, try "Please note applicants must be eligible to live and work in the U.S." for size
- mahmud 16y agoI completely don't get it.
- RuadhanMc 16y agoYou have a far greater chance of obtaining a visa which lets you work and live in Ireland, than you do for the US.
- ikujhygtfhj 16y agoYou have a far greater chance of obtaining a visa which lets you work and live on Mars, than you do for the US
- rmc 16y agoAny of the EU half a billion people can live and work in Ireland.
- ciupicri 16y agoNot anyone from EU. Bulgaria and Romania are excluded: On 17 December 2008, the Government announced its decision that, from 1 January 2009, it would continue to restrict access to the Irish labour market for nationals of Bulgaria and Romania.

- Peroni 16y agoLet's adjust the figures to suit your additional facts: EU Population: 500 Million EU Population eligible to live & work in Ireland: 470 Million
- ciupicri 16y agoDo you think that a Bulgarian or a Romanian cares about these figures if he/she can't work in Ireland and thus can not apply to this program?
- NxguiGui 16y agoYes this is double standard that is eu. I am Bulgarian and have business that makes web based solutions from 2004.I can assure you that we have many qualified programmers. Vmware has a big local offiice, from years sap has one to, we have Bulgarian sucsess in software business to - Telerik and Vray. The point is that bureaucrats are ignorant and don't make anything accept pr using taxpayer money. Wish you luck with 50k agenda.
- rmc 16y agoAh good point, didn't know about that. I know that when Poland et al. joined in 2004, there were not restrictions. I thought it was similar for the 2007 new assencession states.
- a-priori 16y agoOr, if your parents or grandparents are Irish diaspora, like mine, you can claim Irish citizenship fairly easily. They already consider you a citizen, technically, so there's no immigration proceedings; you just need to "register a foreign birth" and provide documentation. Actually, if that's true of any EU country with similar rules you could claim citizenship in that country and be allowed to live and work in Ireland. We're talking about a lot of people here. Of course, becoming a citizen of another country shouldn't be taken lightly, and it does take time.

- jf271 16y agoIt does take time. My application took nine months and that seems to be the average time.
