As has been stated many times there are the rules and then it can depend on who you see. The Immigration Officer in Tullamore gave my son 2 extensions on his first visit and said that was his limit. So that was 9 months to remain in Ireland. You should be able to get a three month extension from your local IO to stay for 6 months. It was actually quite easy. He then went in and out several times while waiting the 2 years it took to get his green card. The only questions at Dublin airport was if he got a female officer,someday when I receive citizenship I will ask them why they have different training than the mem. LOL
