    head to your local office (kings inn street, dublin 1)

    I still hadn't got mine by last week, so I called in, they said they needed a letter of registration from my college, got my letter the following day, submitted it and 24 hours later I got my 500e payment :)

    The cost of education payment may be cut to €300 next year:

    "In Budget 2012 changes were announced to the Cost of Education Allowance. These changes require legislation and are not yet in effect. The Cost of Education Allowance will reduce from €500 to €300. (2012)"
