    hi folks,
    generally if you are in employment you are not entitled to RS. However , they take account of Net income from employment when calculating RS.
    This is a bit cofusing.

    I was thinking of applying for RS -just struggling to pay rent of late:(.
    I'm working ft- on min wages. Have 2 dependents: wife who is not working and a child.
    Also, we are sharing accomm with a person, our share of rent is €600 p/m which is below the Welfare threshhold. Will I qualify do you reckon?

    Thanks all for help and advice.
