Hi everyone!
We are expecting twins in the end of February and just wanted to find out more information about our rights/ benefits.
Maybe some one just had this situation and will be willing to share that experience with us?

We know already about Child Benefits, but maybe something more?

Thank you!

Nope nothing else really. If you join the multiple births association you get discounts in lots of places but we haven’t availed of it much.

child benefit for twins is paid and 1 1/2 times the normal rate.
Your family might quaify for FIS - http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/social_welfare/social_welfare_payments/social_welfare_payments_to_families_and_children/family_income_supplement.html
Maybe HAP if you rent.

other then that I can not think of anything.

Congrats!

Welcome to the club OP.

We’re expecting twins ourselves in 3 weeks, interesting times ahead.
