    Mods feel free to move if needed.
    Guys, I will try and keep this short as there are alot of complications.
    In essence, can a non-dependent , non EEA parent move to Ireland long term (due to illness) if her only family member (daughter) is an Irish citizen?

    We can't give legal advice. A solicitor who specialises in immigration law would be useful.

    I think there would be difficulty - not just on a general visa rights basis, but the risk of the mother becoming a medical-financial burden on the state.

    There are however some bilateral agreements on retiring (not sure if this will apply) to Ireland.

    This issue is very complicated. There has been attempts to bring in grandparents but most have failed. But each case will stand in its own facts. The grandparents own income, the nature of the dependency, in EU treaty rights it can be easier. There are about 2 or 3 solicitors working in this area.

    More social welfare tourism & abuse - lets hope the clamp-downs & reporting of social welfare abuse & tourism continues.

    Where is there any evidence of either. If a dependent relative is allowed in the are given a stamp 3, they have no right to social welfare as they must show sufficient means to support themselves, they must also have adequate health insurance.

    To jump to the conclusions you have shows a total lack of knowledge of the issue.

    Its possible , I've a cousin married to a non EEA national who brought her mum her.Her mum has a long term illness , but is able to support herself through her own incomes etc. I'm not sure about the exact ins and outs of the visas or whatever was necessary to stay.
