Where should I send my certificate?
If you have received an official Certificate of Incapacity for Work from your Doctor you should send it immediately to the Department of Social Protection, Illness Benefit, PO Box 1650, Dublin 1.
Alternatively, your Doctor may send the Certificate directly to the Department via electronic certification (eCert).
Please confirm with your doctor that they have submitted an electronic certification (eCert) on your behalf to ensure your Illness Benefit application is processed.
