Hi everyone. Long time lurker, first time poster here.
I was unemployed for a number of months and qualified for a medical card. I then decided to open my own business and qualified for the short term enterprise allowance. Somebody recently told me that I can keep my medical card for three years after returning to work. I was wondering if somebody could tell me if this is true and if self employment is considered returning to employment. I understand that I can keep my medical card for the duration if the short term enterprise allowance but can I keep it beyond that?
Thanks in advance!
