    Hi everyone

    I have looked at the Gov website bit there isn't much detail on the process for this.

    There is also some old information on boards, so looking for some up to date information.

    Have anyone applied for this recently that can tell me the steps / process when you apply for this scheme.

    Thanks 😊

    Have a look at this link. https://www.gov.ie/en/service/c79268-partial-capacity-benefit/#apply

    Ideally you should apply for PCB before you start work. A medical form is completed and sent to a Medical Assessor who will assess your illness and whether it is moderate, severe or profound. A decision letter is issued to you by the PCB section stating the level of assessment. You inform them when you start work and switch over from IB or IP. This process can take a few weeks.

    If the employment is due to start before this process is complete the application can be fast tracked.
