A little story about applying for grants or bursaries . A few years ago I was Chairman of my local Summer Project .The Irish youth Council recieved a load of coin off the government that was collected through the Criminal assetts board to distribute among youth groups .Summer projects did not meet the criteria as they were not full time youth services .But That didnt stop me .I looked up the patrons of the Irish Youth Council and saw Joe Dolan and Bill Penny apples were on the board so I got an application then Filled it in in Irish then Dropped it in to Renaults HQ on the Kylemore Road for the Att of Irish Youth Foundation care of Apples .Now what I was depending on was Apples would send that over in a Renault Envelope with a cover note and that someone in the Council office that could read Irish would be asked to approve it .It might be the only time they ever had the power to do this so were more likely to pass it or else somebody who could not read Irish might see the Renault Envelope and think Bill was recomending us .We got funding .Moral of the story always apply you can rely on somebody below your pay grade to approve it if they dont and you think you should of gotten it you can appeal .
Reapplied for puppyboy yesterday. Watching and waiting.....

Yes I got it,although strictly speaking I wasn't entitled to it,apparently

Dollymount Cop the fuck on YOU WERE ENTITLED TO IT .You keep acting the DUMB FUCK but thats wearing thin .You were not a pensioner when you ceased to claim the PUP it ended the day before you became a pensioner and they put you on to a different payment .Some TD is tiddling your bollox telling you he sorted it out .If you were not entitled to it you would not of gotten it .

I printed off the forms for 3 other people 2 taxi drivers and an electrician all of them got it .I hope Ken and anybody else who gave up the puppy payments apply for it as they are ENTITLED to claim .In fact another wedge of cash has been made available in the budget to cheese the trap for anybody else that wants to abandon the security of Covid coin/puppy dole/poxwonga .
is that the micro support grant your talking about John ?

I rang yesterday before applying to get info on that. I might as well have been talking to the back of me bollix. "I'll pass that on to the relevant person and you'll get a call before the day is out" Guess what....
Any filled out the online application. I'm watching my MyWelfare inbox like a hawk. If I see a quare number ringing I'll know there's a problem. That was a grant to help get you restarted. There shouldn't be a problem. I don't remember seeing anything in the fine print about returning it if the whole kip nosedived again. We'll see what happens.....

no more confusion over the gross income, welfare.ie, has been updated:

self-employed workers will be able to earn up to €480 a month gross and keep their Pandemic Unemployment Payment. The €480 limit is based on gross income (before tax and PRSI) minus expenses

In simple terms, you mean when the meter clocks 480, thats it?

480 is after expenses, so when your meter hits 480 plus all business expenses for the month, approximately 900 for the month.

that is assuming you are owner driver, if you are renting obviously it will much more than 900 turnover for the month.
