I know of someone who was permitted to use monthly certs, their GP sent a letter to the dept of social welfare stating that they would be claiming illness benefit for quite a while and therefore he felt that monthly certs were more appropriate.
The Dept of Social & Family Affairs will let you know if you can send in monthly certs - its usually based on the type of illness and how long you're likely to be claiming Illness Benefit.
