Am i getting what im entitled to?

Stab*City

Hi all was just wondering.. i am unemployed i have 2 kids from one ex and 1 child from another. I am not claiming rent allowance as i dont need to. I am just getting the basic €196. I pay support to all 3 of my kids not much i admit but enough. I also have unlimited access to all three of my babies so everything is grand there.. The problem i have with paying the support and then all the access is when its all said and done i have v v little left from my €196.. Between going to collect them and dropping them home (petrol is expensive!) and the support and then the money i spend with them i have next to nothing left.. im not complaining i love my kids and would glady starve for them but i cant find work and times are tough..

am i entitled to extra payments based on the time the kids are with me? the mothers of course are getting what payments they are due and obviously i wouldnt want to take any money from them.. any help would be great..

Op
€196 is a nice bit to live one even after you have paid up €30 per child. (not sure what you are giving them) Leaves you with over €100 in your pocket. I pressume you are living at home therefore no rent etc.
What are you spending that money on? You say petrol? how bout getting rid of the car and getting the bus to see the kids?
There are people in much tougher circumstances than you out there.

I'm sure the mothers of your kids have a lot less than that in their pockets when they have paid out everything it costs to rear a child.
The next time put something on the end of it and you won't have to worry about paying out for anymore kids.

You obviously dont have any kids.. That is the stupidist answer i could have gotten to my question and ah just so we are clear i rear the kids just as much as she does.. The next time you decide to judge maybe you should put something on the end of yours.

Ya totally civil like..

jessiejam

Sorry if I offended you. That wasn't my intention. As a matter a fact I do have kids 2 actually. IMO I think you are getting enough from the SW when you have no rent to pay etc. I'm sure its a struggle for your ex's to rear kids on what they are getting. I work and have about €60 left after bills, mort, food etc, to spend. I make it last, I hardly go out and make sure my kids have enough before I spend anything on myself.
Nothing against men in general. you posted my previous posts, I just dislike wasters that mess women around. And my previous post have nothing to do with your post.

jessiejam

Just one other point stab*city, I think if you claim for a child from the SW they have to be living with you. If you have the kids over night and claim your ex's SW will probably be reduced or be taken completely. In other words I think only one person can claim SW for kids. Open to correction on this. Have you told the SW that you have 3 kids and are paying maintenance?, there maybe an allowance for them?

Its ok i was just looking for a yes or no answer to my question really.. As for digging up your recent posts i just had a look at who you were and why did you write a reply like that to a straight up question. Anyway i am not a "messer" my kids spend at least half the week if not more sometimes with ME.. I may not pay rent but of course i contribute where i am living very nieve of you to think my only outgoings are child support. How condecending of you to make comments like that when you are working.. i dont drink (neither do i want to), i dont go out (neither do i want to), i only use my car for the kids mostly so you see im not one of those "messers" who obviously done you over.. i mean if you couldnt even answer my question why did you bother posting here at all? just to vent your anger towards that messer is it?:)

I'm not sure if you are entitled to any more benefits OP, but i'd just thought i'd say that €196 while in your circumstance is far from 'a nice bit to live on'. Having three kids to sheperd back and forth between homes while only using the bus would be a nightmare imho, so don't feel bad for having a car. Regarding you not having to pay rent, you are lucky but what about your food/heating/electrical/clothing costs, does the jessiejam think they don't exist? As well as that if you look after your kids for half the week give or take, surely you have to feed them?

I'm sorry to go off topic on your original post, but I felt that you needed to be backed up in what can only be described as hard circumstances.

Thanks delly:D

I mean just to clear things up im not looking for child benefit or anything like that.. i just thought due to my circumstances if there was an extra 10 or 20 quid that i might be missing out on i could start claiming it..

You are seriously aggressive in all of your posts on this thread. I'd suggest dropping that kind of attitude when looking for advice

if you bother to read the above post john_mc you would have known all my posts in this thread are not agressive..


I was only asking a question and was told to tie a knot in my penis!! How would you react.. i was looking for advice on social welfare payments not contraception.

This is just ridiculous! He was asking a genuine question, no need for that carry on. And from what he said BOTH mother and father are rearing the kids.

Shocked myself with the level of aggression from "Stab*city".

I doubt there is any more available for you from welfare, most of the payments go to the parent who the child lives with fulltime or other carer.

I know if you worked fulltime you would be able to get the lone parent extra tax credit if the children stay a couple of nights. It would certainly make working more worthwhile for you if that was an option.

alrightcuz

Theres alot of bollix being talked in here the man just asked a question,,,,

i don't know brother about ur entitlements but anyone who thinks supporting kids on welfare is easy haven't a ****ing clue,,, mainly people with jobs after i work i only have 60 euro my self **** off u fool thats a lie any hows without even thinking about birthdays,holloween,christmas,summer holidays .
so just including tax ,insurance,petrol then the weekly bills and food noting is left idiots,,,

all i can think is what i done i rang everyone from the provident to the credit union the bank esb the gas even the tv licence people told them i was up ****s creak and worked out a weekly payment plan for everything if they don't agree i mentioned mabs they hate mabs ha ha it put a little more in my pocket each week
