Thanks for replying. I know they’ll assess it but I don’t know if they will take into consideration what he’s paying in rent and bills. That’s mostly what I need to knowAssuming you live together, your partner's income will be assessed.
Have a read of the section "If your partner works" on this webpage, it explains how his income is assessed.
Disability Allowance
A weekly payment to people that have an injury, illness or disability which is expected to last more than a year. Find out how to qualify and rates of payment.www.citizensinformation.ie
Is that absolutely certain that rent is not taken into consideration?No, rent or insurance are not taken into account for the means test,only what's listed in the link above
In or around that amount Clubman, I was using 4.3 but you could go 4.333 or whichever to give that €553 mark. The point was just that people I know of, always divide by 4 when figuring out weekly pay as opposed to monthly and are doing themselves an injustice. The amount is lower that they think.Surely if somebody is earning €2,400 p.m. then that's €2,400 p.m. x 12 months = €28,800 p.a. or €28,800 p.a. / 52 weeks = €553.85 p.w. pro-rata?
