You may postpone the last 12 weeks of your maternity leave and Maternity Benefit if your child is in hospital. Your Maternity Benefit must have been in payment for at least 14 weeks and you must have taken at least 4 weeks maternity leave after your baby was born. You should apply in writing to the address in Section 19 if you want to have your Maternity Benefit postponed. You can postpone your Maternity Benefit for up to 6 months. Your payment will resume when you send in written confirmation to Maternity Benefit Section that your child has been discharged from hospital and your employer certifies that you are entitled to resume postponed maternity leave. Your payment will continue until your entitlement to Maternity Benefit finishes.

Is féidir leat an 12 sheachtain dheiridh de do shaoire mháithreachais agus de do Shochar Máithreachais a chur siar má tá do leanbh san ospidéal. Ní foláir nó go bhfuil do Shochar Máithreachais á íoc le 14 seachtaine anuas ar a laghad agus ní foláir nó go bhfuil 4 seachtaine ar a laghad de shaoire mháithreachais glactha agat i ndiaidh bhreith do leanbáin. Is cóir duit iarratas i scríbhinn a dhéanamh chuig an seoladh ar roinn 19 más mian leat do Shochar Máithreachais a chur siar. Is féidir leat do Shochar Máithreachais a chur siar go ceann suas le 6 mhí. Athchromfar ar d’íocaíocht nuair a chuirfidh tú daingniúchán i scríbhinn chuig Rannóg an tSochair Mháithreachais go bhfuil do leanbh scaoilte amach as an ospidéal agus nuair a dheimhneoidh d’fhostóir go bhfuil tú i dteideal athchromadh ar an tsaoire mháithreachais a cuireadh siar. Leanfaidh d’íocaíocht go dtí go gcríochnóidh do theidlíocht ar an Sochar Máithreachais.
