Difference between rent allowance limit and actual Rent of a place?

Does that mean i'm only allowed to get a place where the rent is E880 or less, or not? A friend…

I'm a single mother with one child, going back into rent allowance/ lone parents etc, after 4years off it ( relationship has ended) My question is this: The rent allowance limit for Greystones, Co Wicklow, where I am is E880. Does that mean i'm only allowed to get a place where the rent is E880 or less, or not? A friend says I am allowed to rent at E950 or below, although the 'rent allowance limit' is E880. Can some one please clarify this for me? Desperate!
