You can work and get One-Parent Family Payment. The amount of payment you get depends on your weekly means.

Income disregards
  • The first €110 of your gross weekly earnings (including wages and profit from self-employment) is not taken into account (or disregarded). This means that you can earn up to €110 per week and qualify for the full One-Parent Family Payment.
  • Half the remainder of your gross earnings up to €425 per week is assessed as means. If you earn between €110 and €425 per week you may qualify for a reduced payment. SW 19 Social Welfare Rates of Payment booklet shows the amount of OPF payable with your means.
 
Thank you.. if i will be earning between 200-250 per week would i still be entitled to opf or could i apply for fis?
