    You have to apply through one of the Irish companies, there may be more but the most common ones are:
    They will sort everything out with you.

    If you go with any of the companies they really stress you're not allowed work in construction. You can chance it sure but if you're caught you're out of the country pronto and it might be a while before you get into the States again! I know people who have chanced it and gotten away with it and others who didn't get away with it and were booted back to Ireland straight away
