View answerThe Government has not made a decision on the Christmas Bonus for this year. However, I can confirm that if a bonus was to be paid then it would not negatively impact on current Student Universal Support Ireland applicants who at present meet the relevant criteria for grant purposes such as nationality, residency, previous academic attainment and means.
