Ireland: US/UK Family Fleeing to Ireland:

As a UK citizen, he will be able to live & work in Ireland regardless of Brexit, because of the UK Irish Common Travel Area, which predates the E.U. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Travel_Area#British_citizens_in_Ireland Once he has live in Ireland the requisite number of years, citizenship by naturalisation becomes an option.

Ireland: Non-EU spouse questions:

My spouse is an EU citizen, I am not. I am the sole breadwinner. We are considering a move to Ireland in the next 12 months. I understand as the spouse of an EU citizen I have the right to live & work where my spouse lives. As an IT professional, I have no concerns about finding work. However the majority of the reading I've done on this topic assumes the EU citizen will be the primary breadwinner, so there are some things I'm not 100% sure of. 1) If I have a job offer & they want me to start ASAP - i.e. before we've managed to sell our house, move our stuff etc, is there any way I can start working in Ireland while my wife stays behind tidying up our affairs, or must we both front up in person before I can get permission to work? 2) Would there be any impediment to someone in our situation getting a mortgage?
