I suggest you read through the thread "Retired to Ireland, Now given seven days to leave". Unless you have an Irish grandparent or parent, you will have to qualify on your income (right now it is €50,000 per year per person, may soon be decreased to €35, 000) and savings (minimally enough to purchase a house, approx €150,000-200,000). This financial criteria may qualify you for a stamp 0, which has to be renewed each year at the cost of €300. Good luck!

If you do not have a Irish parent or grandparent, forget about moving there. They now require 50,000 Euro income per person to become citizens. I am dual Irish - US from my Mother, born in Cork. I spent almost one full year living there, but the US is a better deal as you will not get a Irish medical card, even if you do get a passport. If you did not work in Ireland for a long period why should they give you anything ? No pension, no medical. If you cannot get a passport from Irish lineage, your Social Security will not make it. Be careful what you wish for.
