Im on loan parent for my son, me and his dad hadnt been together for a while but we are back together now. We want to move in with each other but at the min I'm only in seasonial work which will end in jan. when tat goes ill only have d one parent.

Can someone help me as to what I'd b entitled to if I give it up and move in with my bf, he has a full time job. And we want to move into a nice housing area and set up being a family for the first time.
 
You will get childrens allowance, as you should now.
Depending on your boyfriends earnings you may be able to apply for FIS and a medical card. Have a look here:

It's not clear from your post if your boyfriend already has a home? If not then ring your local council regarding their housing list and they will advise you of what you need to do to get onto the list.
 
Thank you. He is renting with friends at the min. But the lease is up soon so that is why we want to make a move. I do get child allowance and at the min I am on d council list but just as a single applicant.
 
How much does your bf earn before tax? How many hours does he work? How many children do you have?

If you let us know, then someone should be able to give you an idea of the range of supports that are out there, and how much they might be of value to you. Alternatively, you could phone the Irish National Organisation of the Unemployed, they have information officers who can go over your circumstances and let you know of anything you may be entitled to. 01 856 0088
