dublin and this is an english-speaking
country so you don’t need to learn any
additional foreign language to mag right

many irish companies at the moment but
not for you if you wish to move to a
foreign country and settle down this is
the right time to start applying for
jobs there are number of reasons for the
labor shortage in ireland now many
people have chosen to switch jobs and in
some cases move sectors after the
pandemic shutdowns others have chosen to
retire early or to work for fewer hours

available to migrate in ireland but i
will be covering only csep which is a
type of work permit in ireland which
stands for critical skills employment
permit the old name of this visa type
was green card type employment permit
the critical skills employment permit is
designed to attract highly skilled
people into the labor market with the
aim of encouraging them to take a
permanent residence in ireland eligible
occupations under this type of permit
are deemed to be critically important to
growing ireland’s economy are highly
demanded and highly skilled and
insignificant shortage of supply in this
labor market occupations such as ict
professionals professional engineers and
technologists teachers nurses are
catered for under this type of
employment permit i’ll show you a full
demo at the end of this blog. this visa
is valid for two years and you will get
your permanent residency which is pr at
the end of two years agenda number two
benefits number one no sponsorship is
needed you can apply your visa with just
a job offer which is your employment
contract from your company also since
jobs listed under this category are in
short supply labor market needs test is
not required number two while the job
offer must be of two years duration you
need to stay with the initial employee
for a minimum period of 12 months only
number three family reunification which
means you can move with your family and
apply visa at the same time as the main
applicant number four stand for means pr

eligibility criteria so eligibility for
a critical skills employment permit is

occupation and proposed remuneration
level so number one is occupations with

euros with occupations contained in the
critical skills occupation list and a
relevant degree qualification or higher
is required number two all occupations
with a minimum annual remuneration of
over 64 000 euros other than those on
the ineligible list of occupations for
employment permits or which are contrary
to the public interest if you don’t have
