    Yes it is, gross, per couple. Citizens info has everything that is required.

    Sorry in saying that, you can still qualify for it. So as far as I know, every €2 that you are over the €665, €1 is taken off the carers allowance. So if you were €100 over the limit, €50 would be deducted off the carers rate.

    So you would end up with €169 carers allowance, (this is for under 66) plus any qualifying child fees. I hope that makes sense!
