Rent Allowance Rate?

    Ok im totally confused by this rent allowance scheme,

    I have booked a house in Glasan Galway, they want 600 euro before the 21st of August and then 90 a week after that, Im a mature student on btea 160 a week im not working (thoough tried in vein to get something for the summer) I read online the max you can get in allowance in Galway is max single shared 330 and single 575. The house id be in is shared so im not sure where I fall under 330 or 575.

    From experience does anyone know what i would get in rent allowance? The main reason I want to move out to the city is because id have a better chance of getting a job if I was living in the city.

    would they help with the 600 deposit?

    Any info you would give me would be really appreciated.

    You would only get €210 in rent supplement ,
    It's a maximum of 330 minus your own contribution of €30 pw
