Since my last blog I have been doing some analysis on the
visa approvals by Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Services. The list
available on INIS website.
The analysis shows the figures between 26-02-2014 and
19-05-2014. There is a 59% approval rate. Total number of applications
accessed within the time period is 1915 and there is a 59% approval rate. A good number of visas were Visit B/O. The bar
