Ah, ok, so I was worrying for no reason! Yes, it's quite some money and I could really get depressed if I don't get it at the end. Thanks Jim!Hi Mary Anne,
PND is very very common. I think you should take the advice you were given. Its certainly worth it for the mat benefit. I dont think it would be recorded in any detrimental way for you! Itll just be part of your medical history.
Mary Anne congratulations on the birth of your baby - Wishing you and your family every good fortune.
Personally I think this is your money and you should get every cent the same as everyone else does - If you need to tell a couple of innocent white lies then just force yourself to do it.....
- All credit for being a decent and honest person who telling even a harmless lie never came naturally to.
Really? A decent and honest person wouldn't be contemplating falsely claiming to be suffering from a mental illness in order to get money from their fellow tax payers.Personally I think this is your money and you should get every cent the same as everyone else does - If you need to tell a couple of innocent white lies then just force yourself to do it.....

Oh guys thanks a lot!
Well the problem is I didn't know I had to fill a form, otherwise, yes, it takes no time really. I did all the paperwork for employer in perfect time like.
And no I got the M.B. deducted from salary I wouldn't be losing sleep over it if it wasn't so.
Ill try to ask GP nicely, or I will get depressed for real, since after all it's money everyone gets and delay doesn't really change any of the other circumstances.
I can't vote in Ireland, so I don't think any TD would actually bother with me. I take it that should be a good one thanks for the advice Leper.
Will get you a virtual round if this works out!!
Thanks,
Mary Anne
Will most GP's really tell lies in order to defraud the Department of Social Protection?

There should be an appeals procedure in the SW Maternity Benefit section. If they can't help then anything else is fraud.
It's not defrauding the dept of Social protection.
What do you call telling lies to get the money? It may not be that big a deal but I certainly wouldn't be extolling someone's honesty with "All credit for being a decent and honest person" after advising them to tell lies to make up for their own mistake.It's not defrauding the dept of Social protection. She is late with her claim through an honest mistake. There is an actual baby and she is entitled to it. Do you think the personal in Social Welfare would have told her to defraud the welfare? I'd say it is quite common.
I suppose they will,sure they sign sick certs all the time...And yes, a GP would sign a note.
Exactly.Of course it is. The requirement for the benefit is that it be claimed within 6 months.
Now a fraud has been proposed to get around the failure to meet that requirement. (The blithe assumption that a GP will be happy to oblige is a thing of beauty)
If I were in this situation I wouldn't hesitate to get the GP to sign and make the claim, but I wouldn't delude myself by thinking that it wasn't fraud. The rules are stupid I am happy to break them, but I recognise that is what I am doing.
... if you claim within 6 months. Outside that you need to commit fraud to get it.…..Getting money from her fellow tax payers that she is wholly and absolutely entitled to....
You know what they say about opinions.In my opinion its best to not get blinded by technicalities and begin brandishing moral concepts like they matter when they absolutely do not to the ordinary, fair minded, balanced and objective person.
