Proposed new immigration regime for full-time non-EEA students
October 2009
ICOS responded to the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) over a proposed new immigration regime for full-time non-EEA students, which included more than 20 specific measures, including capping the length of time a person can spend in Ireland as a student, introducing a two tier system "to facilitate the targeting of incentives towards the upper end of the academic spectrum", a tighter inspection regime, possible changes in respect of visas and new guidelines on work placement or internship.
