My daughter (17) has a rare disability which will affect her ability to gain any employment. She has been approved for the disability allowance and as her health had deteriorated I am applying for a medical card for her, based on her health.
I've reached the section where they ask about her savings - she has about ten thousand in her Credit Union Account -but I see it as money she may need in her future as when I am no longer earning she may not be able to survive on the disability allowance. Will that impact on her eligibility?
 
Don't worry, Grasscutter... She can savings of up to €36,000 and not have it affect her eligibility...
