Illness benefits

Shinsen

Hello.
I have been off sick from work for three months now. I applied for illness benefits, these are currently paid to my employer as they're paying the full salary to me. Next month I'll receive reduced salary, via an insurance scheme of salary cover. This will last 2 months. After that, I don't know what will happen. I don't know if I get better to go back to work, I don't know what will happen to me. I am alone and I have to pay the rent as well, I am not from Ireland, I don't have a family who can support me here.
Thank you for your information.

You should be paid directly by the DoSP after the 2 months of your insurance sheme are over.You should have enough contributions. However your payment will only be standard rate.
