Introduction A Widow's, Widower's or Surviving Civil Partner’s (Non-Contributory) Pension is a means-tested payment payable to a widow, widower or surviving civil partner who does not qualify for a contributory widow's, widower's or surviving civil partner’s payment. (This payment was formerly called the Widow's/Widower's (Non-Contributory) Pension). It is is a payment for widows, widowers or surviving civil partners who do not have dependent children. People with dependent children should apply for the One-Parent Family Payment or Jobseeker's Transitional payment. You transfer to State Pension (Non-Contributory) when you reach 66 years of age. This pension is taxable but you are unlikely to pay tax if it is your only income. Rules Tto qualify you must, of course, be a widow, widower or surviving civil partner and you must not be cohabiting with another person. You can keep your entitlement to this pension if you are divorced or your civil partnership has been dissolved, and you would have been entitled to this pension had you remained married or in the civil partnership. You must also: The means test Your means are any income you have or property (except your own home) or an asset that could bring in money or provide you with an income. Your means are assessed using specific rules under the following headings: - Cash income (including, income from work) - Value of capital (for example, savings, investments, cash on hand and property but not your own home) - Income from property personally used Cash income and income from work Any cash income you have is assessed in the means test. This includes income from a social security pension from another country. However, certain items of cash income are not taken into account in the means test. For example, earnings of up to €100 per week from employment (but not self-employment) are not taken into account. Any income from work above €100 is assessed as means. More information is available in our document about cash income not taken into account in the means test. From January 2012 any income you get from working as a home help for the HSE is taken into account in the means test. Capital and property not personally used Savings, investments, cash on hand and any property you own (but not your own home) is assessed as capital. All your capital from different sources is added together and a special formula is then used to find your weekly means from capital. The property and investments that may be assessed under this heading include savings in a bank account (or anywhere else), a house that you have let and stocks and shares. You may or may not be getting an income from the property or investment. Income from property already assessed on its capital value is not assessed in the means test - see cash income above. More information is available in our document on how capital and property is assessed as means. Income from property personally used (your home) The value of the house you live in is not taken into account in the means test. However, any income you are getting from it is taken into account. For example, if you rented a room in your house, that income is assessed. There is an exception to this, if not renting the room means that you would be living alone then your income from rent is not taken into account. Total means Your means under the various headings are added together to see what level of pension, if any, you can get. The first €7.60 per week of means as assessed by the Department of Social Protection does not affect the rate of pension. After that, the pension is reduced by €2.50 each week for every €2.50 of means. Rates Extra benefits If you are getting a Widow's, Widower's or Surviving Civil Partner's Pension (Non-Contributory) you may qualify for Fuel Allowance (if you are living alone or with certain 'specified' people). If you are aged 60 to 65 and your late spouse or civil partner was getting a Household Benefits Package at the time of their death, you may qualify for a Household Benefits Package. You may also qualify for help with funeral expenses and rent under the Supplementary Welfare Allowance Scheme. If you are unhappy with a decision made on your claim you can appeal against Find out more about the social welfare appeals process. You must always tell the Department of Social Protection if there are any changes to your circumstances while you are getting a Widow's, Widower's or Surviving Civil Partner's Pension (Non-Contributory). If your means or circumstances change you may no longer qualify for the payment or it may be reduced. This could mean that you have to repay an overpayment.

Eolas Is íocaíocht de réir tástála acmhainne í Pinsean Baintrí, Baintrí Fir nó Páirtnéara Shibhialta Mharthanaigh (Neamh-Ranníocach) iníoctha le baintreach, le baintreach fir nó le páirtnéir sibhialta marthanach nach bhfuil incháilithe d’Íochaíocht Bhaintrí, Baintrí Fir nó Páirtnéara Shibhialta Mharthanaigh (Rannaíoch). Tugadh an Pinsean Baintrí/Baintrí Fir (Neamh-Ranníocach) ar an íocaíocht seo roimhe seo. Is é pinsean do bhaintreacha, do bhaintreacha fir nó do pháirtnéirí sibhialta marthanacha nach bhfuil leanaí cleithiúnacha acu. Ba cheart do dhaoine a bhfuil páistí cleithiúnacha acu cur isteach ar an Íocaíocht Teaghlaigh Aontuismitheora. Nuair beidh tú 66 bliana d'aois aistrífear é go Pinsean Stáit (Neamh-Rannaíocach). Tá an pinsean seo inchánach ach má tá tú gan aon ioncam eile, ní miste cáin a ghearradh air. Rialacha Chun cáiliú ní mór duit a bheith i do bhaintreach, do bhaintreach fir nó do pháirtnéir sibhialta a mhaireann, agus ní féidir leat a bheith in aontíos le duine eile. Coinníonn tú do theidlíocht an pinsean seo a fháil má tá tú colscartha nó má tá do pháirtíocht sibhialta tar éis díscaoileadh, agus dá mbeadh tú i dteideal an phinsean a fháil dá bhfanfá pósta nó sa pháirtíocht shibhialta. Beidh tú i dteideal: - Má éiríonn leat sa scrúdú maoine agus - Má sásaíonn tú na coinníollacha a bhaineann le gnáthchónaí. An tástáil acmhainne Is ionann do chuid acmhainní agus ioncam nó réadmhaoin ar bith atá agat (seachas do theach féin) nó sócmhainn ar bith a d'fhéadfadh airgead a thabhairt isteach nó ioncam a sholáthar duit. Meastar acmhainní de réir rialacha sonracha faoi na cinnteidil a leanas: - Ioncam airgead tirim agus ioncam ó fhostaíocht - Luach caipitil agus maoine nach bhfuil úsáid phearsanta á baint as - Luach maoine a bhfuil úsáid phearsanta á baint as (m.sh., ,coigiltis, infheistiochtai airgead tiruin seachas, do theach cónaithe) Ioncam airgead tirim agus ioncan ó fhostaíocht Déantar measúnú sa scrúdú maoine ar gach ioncam i bhfoirm airgid atá agat. I measc na míreanna d’ioncam airgid a dhéantar a mheasúnú tá aon ioncam ó phinsean slándála sóisialaí ó thír eile. Tá míreanna áirithe den ioncam airgid nach gcuirtear san áireamh, áfach. Ní chuirtear san áireamh, mar shampla, airgead suas go €100 in aghaidh na seachtaine a thuilltear de thoradh fostaíochta (ach ní de thoradh féinfhostaíochta). Is mar mhaoin a áirítear gach ioncaim os a chionn sin. Ní chuirtear íocaíochtaí a fhaightear faoin Scéim Scoir Feirmeoireachta san áireamh. Tá tuilleadh faoi conas measúnú a dhéanamh ar do chuid acmhainní ó airgead tirim. Ioncam Cúntóra Bhaile: Ó Eanáir 2012 cuirtear aon ioncam a fhaigheann tú ó obair mar chúntóir baile le FSS san áireamh don tástáil acmhainne. Caipiteal agus maoin nach bhfuil úsáidte go pearsanta Déantar measúnacht ar choigilteas, infheistíochtaí, airgead ar láimh agus réadmhaoin ar bith ar leat í (ach nach é do bhaile féin é) mar chaipiteal. Cuirtear do chuid caipitil ar fad ó fhoinsí éagsúla le cheile agus baintear úsáid as foirmle speisialta ansin le do chuid acmhainní seachtainiúla ó chaipiteal a aimsiú. Áirítear leis an réadmhaoin agus na hinfheistíochtaí a bhféadfaí a mheas faoi réir na ceannscríbhinne seo coigilteas i gcuntas bainc (nó áit ar bith eile), teach atá ligthe amach ar cíos agat agus scaireanna. Is féidir go mbeidh tú ag fáil ioncaim ón réadmhaoin nó ón infheistíocht nó nach mbeidh. Ní dhéantar measúnacht ar ioncam ó réadmhaoin atá measúnaithe cheana féin ar a luach caipitil sa tástáil mhaoine - féach ioncam airgid thuas. Tá tuilleadh eolais ar fáil inár ndoiciméad maidir leis an dóigh a ndéantar réadmhaoin a mheas mar acmhainn. Maoin a mbaintear úsáid phearsanta as Ní mheastar do theach cónaithe mura bhfuil ioncam á thuilleamh agat as. Mar shampla, tá seomra tí ligthe ar cíos agat, measfar an t-ioncam as sin. Ach, más i d'aonar a bheifeá ag cónaí murach an seomra sin a bheith ligthe, ní mheasfar an t-ioncam ar chor ar bith. Acmhainní iomlána Suimítear d'acmhainní faoi na cinnteidil éagsúla chun méid aon phinsin ar féidir leat a fháil a mheas. Ní bhíonn aon tionchar ar ráta an phinsin ag an gcéad €7.60 de mhaoin in aghaidh na seachtaine faoi mar a dhéanann an Roinn Coimirce Sóisialaí measúnú uirthi. Ina dhiaidh sin déantar laghdú €2.50 in aghaidh na seachtaine ar an bpinsean in aghaidh gach €2.50 maoine.
