    I will rephrase my previous post and ask of your partner is on disability and your living together are you entitled to get the full 198 if you have your own claim in and not a dependent?

    Looking at this:

    I would say no.
    You could get it arranged that each of you gets 50% of your combined entitlements.

    If you are living together and one of you is on Disability Allowance and the other is on a claim (for Jobseekers Allowance, the dole in other words) then each of you is entitled to €198 as long as the one on the dole is 26.
