Immigration Services for Elderly Dependent Parents

Immigration Services for Elderly Dependent Parents

At Ishaq & Co Solicitors, we understand the complexity and sensitivity surrounding the migration of elderly dependent parents. The desire to reunite families and ensure the well-being of elderly parents is a noble one, yet it is often met with formidable legal and practical challenges. This is particularly true in jurisdictions like Ireland, where the migration of elderly dependent parents faces considerable restrictions and potentially long waiting times.
The legal framework governing this form of migration is intricate, largely due to the potential financial liabilities that host countries, such as Ireland, might incur. These include costs associated with medical treatments, nursing home care, and other necessary services for elderly individuals who may not be able to support themselves financially. Given these concerns, the Irish State is cautious and highly restrictive in its approach to accepting such responsibilities.
While it is entirely understandable for Irish citizens or non-EEA nationals lawfully residing in the State to wish for their elderly parents to join them, the reality presents significant hurdles. The initially willing families may face changes in circumstances, making them unable to continue supporting their elderly relatives. This poses a difficult dilemma for the State, balancing between financial burdens and the ethics of potentially deporting elderly individuals who cannot fend for themselves.
