Got a job offer that would move us back to Ireland. The salary per month is about 1675, add children's allowance, that brings it up to 1935 euro. It would only be me working as our 2 children are very young. Do you think we could manage? We wouldn't need a car as job is walking distance and we have decent amenities close by. We own our home in Ireland.
 
You should qualify for FIS (Family Income Supplement) as well,which would make the budget a bit easier.A back of the envelope calculation is about €130 per week,which would bring your weekly income up to €570.
 
Thanks a million for the reply. Would I qualify for FIS if I lived abroad previously? I have been working in the middle east for nearly 5 years.
 
Is your mortgage interest only and about to change sometime soon to capital + interest? Worth considering if so.
