    So I've a strained relationship with the grants office in Cork County Council with them rejecting us twice for a grant due to being 1 or 2 thousand over the limit. The annoying thing being that if I hadn't have been working we would have gotten 100% maintenance each time, but that's neither here or there.

    While reading the official guide to the grants this year I noticed something about what could be deducted from your reckonable income.
    income from employment which represents holiday earnings outside
    of term time, subject to a maximum limit set out in Part B of Schedule 1;
    Holiday Earnings:
    An allowance of €3,809, in respect of income earned in the reference period but outside of the approved institutions term time, is deductible from the applicant's earnings

    Has anyone else ever heard of this before? Because the grant office sure as hell never told me
