View answerThe Department has not as yet received a claim from the person concerned for Illness Benefit.
However, the person concerned would appear to have the necessary PRSI contributions for Illness Benefit if she is making a claim from 31 December 2018. She would qualify at a rate of €198 per week.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
