What are the income eligibility rules for Irelands Warmer Homes Scheme?

A GrantWise Team Answered by

The Warmer Homes Scheme does not use one simple income limit for every applicant; eligibility generally depends on receiving a qualifying social welfare payment, such as Fuel Allowance, Working Family Payment, One-Parent Family Payment or certain jobseeker’s or carer’s payments. You will normally also need to own and live in a home that meets the scheme’s age and other requirements. SEAI assesses applications and may request documents confirming your payment and household circumstances. Check the latest criteria on the official SEAI website, as qualifying payments and rules can change.
