My wife and I are US citizens in Seattle and have an 8 month old baby girl, Molly.

I am a registered foreign birth (grandparents) dual citizen and sent in the papers for Molly a couple months back when they reopened the office.  

Wanted to move to Ireland for a while and give Molly some world citizenship time growing up.  Both my wife Lissa and I are avid travellers and would love for Molly to grow up with weekends in Rome, Paris, Amsterdam, etc. not to mention healthcare, college, etc.

Anyway, casually looking on LinkedIn and networking to find a job (I am in tech and startups, the wife is an architect) and have flights booked for April to drive around and find a good place to live - thinking Dublin, Cork or Galway currently - hopefully the virus takes one on the nose by then.

As I understand it, the wife needs to register and spend 3 years there somehow managing to stay married to me and then she can be granted citizenship, etc. - wondering about healthcare in the interim for her - do we need to buy private health insurance for her until she gets citizenship if we live there? Also, can she work while in limbo?

Look forward to "meeting" you all!

Thanks,

Tim

Tell us a little about yourself, your move, and what if any information you might need help finding. 

Whether you're planning your move, or have already made the move, we'd love to hear from you. 

 

UPDATE - Please use this post to introduce yourself, but if you'd like information about a specific topic, please start a new topic. You can do so by clicking the blue 'add topic' button. So much great info is getting lost in this topic, that would be more useful as a standalone item.

Thanks!
