| Income requirement | Financial thresholds vary by sponsor and family situation. Under the June 2026 policy, Irish citizens sponsoring spouses/children are subject to a three-year gross-income test of EUR 75,000 total (EUR 25,000 per year); other sponsor categories use different thresholds, so applicants should consult the current ISD table.As of 2026-09-20Source 1Source 2 |
