Irish benefits - popeye - 01-03-2007

Good day all GBers. Hope you are all having a wonderful week.

I was just wondering if anyone here know the in-and-outs of the social welfare system in Ireland. I am interested in knowing what benefits one ca apply for etc.

Considering I hold British citizenship, I am sure there should be some benefits I can claim, but would like some guidance in this area.

Also does anyone know a good webiste to use, where I can calculate my net pay from a gross yearly amount, taking into account relevant taxes, PRSI, etc.?

I am trying to work in a budget for myself, and can't seem to find much info on these topics. I heard that the benefits received in Ireland are supposed to be quite good (child, marriage tax, family income support, etc.)

Thanks:thx:
Popeye
