Deserted Wife's Allowance was closed off to new applications with effect from 2 January 1997 when One-Parent Family Payment was introduced. Former Deserted Wife's Allowance recipients who had been transferred to Lone Parent's Allowance (now One-Parent family Payment) in 1990 and who cease to be eligible for One-Parent Family Payment because they no longer have a dependant child, can re-qualify for Deserted Wife's Allowance, subject to the conditions of that scheme, once they are aged 40 years or over. Deserted Wife's Allowance was introduced in 1970. See separate guideline on " One-Parent Family Payment" for more detail. See also separate guideline on " Deserted Wife's Benefit" for more detail. Legislation: The provisions relating to Deserted Wife's Allowance were contained in - Sections 152 - 154, Chapter 7 (Part III) of the Social Welfare (Consolidation) Act 1993, as amended, (Repealed by S 19 SW Act 1996) except for those in receipt of Deserted Wife's Benefit on 2 January 1997 - Section 178 Social Welfare (Consolidation) Act 2005. - Section 77, Chapter 3 (Part III) of the Social Welfare (Consolidated) Payments Provisions) Regulations 1994, as amended. Administration: The scheme is administered by Deserted Wife’s Benefit/Allowance Section, Social Welfare Services Sligo, College Road, Sligo.

Where a husband and wife resume living together, desertion is no longer deemed to exist. Divorce A person who is divorced from her husband ( being a divorce that is recognised as valid in the State) and has not remarried, continues to be regarded as a deserted wife and qualifies for continued payment of Deserted Wife's Allowance, provided all other qualifying conditions are satisfied for receipt of benefit. Age The claimant must be between 40 and under 66 years of age and have no qualified children. Means For Deserted Wife's Allowance purposes, means e.g. income from savings, investments, property, employment etc are calculated in accordance with Part 5 of Schedule 3 of the Social Welfare (Consolidation) Act, 2005 as amended.

Where a person in receipt of Deserted Wife's Allowance is not receiving maintenance from her husband or is receiving maintenance which is less than the rate of Deserted Wife's Allowance appropriate to her, she is required to make, and continue to make, efforts to obtain maintenance from her husband. In determining whether a wife is being adequately maintained by her husband for the purposes of Deserted Wife's Allowance, housing costs may be offset against any maintenance in payment, with the exception of €6.35 a week. See Appendix A for what constitutes the making of efforts to get maintenance. Where a person in receipt of Deserted Wife's Allowance is adequately maintained by her husband i.e. receiving maintenance equal to or greater than the rate of Deserted Wife's Allowance appropriate to her, Deserted Wife's Allowance is no longer payable.

Imprisonment A person is disqualified from receiving Deserted Wife's Allowance including any increases, for any period during which she is undergoing penal servitude, imprisonment or detention in legal custody. Certification of ongoing entitlement Social Welfare legislation puts an onus on a person to notify the Department of any changes in circumstances which may affect entitlement to Deserted Wife's Allowance. On being notified of an award of Deserted Wife's Allowance, a person is issued with a list of circumstances which could affect her continued entitlement to the payment. The person is requested to advise the Department of any such changes in circumstances. The following are some circumstances and events which may affect a person's entitlement to Deserted Wife's Allowance:- - Change in person's means or income - Change of address - Change of Post Office/Bank - Death of claimant - Imprisonment or detention of claimant - claimant leaves the State - Change in household composition including the birth of an additional child - Cohabitation with another person - Re-marriage - If spouse begins/resumes maintenance payments or if a Court Maintenance Order is enforced - If husband and wife resume living together Failure to notify the Department of any of the above events may result in overpayment of which may be recoverable from a person by way of lump sum repayment or deductions from weekly payment It may equally result in an underpayment of Deserted Wife's Allowance e.g. where earnings/savings have reduced. Effective date of payment of any underpayment of benefit, would normally be decided by reference to legislative and other provisions in relation to late claims. See at Part 2 of the Widow/er's or Surviving Civil Partner's (Non-Contributory) Pension guidelines and separate guideline on Late Claims. See separate guideline on " Overpayment Recovery" for more detail. Review A review is initiated when the Department is notified of any change in circumstances which may affect entitlement.

Periodic reviews are also initiated by the Department to confirm that the appropriate payment is being made to the appropriate person and that the qualifying conditions for receipt of Deserted Wife's Allowance continue to be fulfilled. Suspension/Revocation/Reduction of Payment Where initial enquiries with a person, including written communication, fail to establish the facts as required e.g. current address, current earnings, household composition etc. payment of Deserted Wife's Allowance may be suspended in whole/part until the relevant information has been provided by the person in receipt of Deserted Wife's Allowance. Where the facts have been established, following a review of the qualifying conditions for payment of Deserted Wife's Allowance, and where a Deciding Officer deems that the qualifying conditions are no longer fulfilled, the person will be so advised in writing. There will be a right of appeal against any such decision. See also separate guidelines on " Decision-Making" and " Revised decisions". If an overpayment of Deserted Wife's Allowance has occurred it may be recoverable by the Department. See separate guideline on " Overpayment Recovery" for more detail. Part 3: General Provisions Which Apply Appendix A - Deserted Wife's Allowance Requirement to make appropriate efforts to obtain maintenance One of the qualifying conditions for entitlement to Deserted Wife's Allowance is that a person makes and continues to make appropriate efforts to obtain maintenance from her husband. Note: Notwithstanding these "efforts" obligations on individuals in receipt of Deserted Wife's Allowance, the Department may pursue the liable relative (husband ) directly, under the "Liability to Maintain Family" provisions of the Social Welfare Acts, for a maintenance contribution towards the Deserted Wife's Allowance in payment.] The "efforts to obtain maintenance" obligation on persons in receipt of Deserted Wife's Allowance, applies as follows: Husband working and current address known If the husband is working and the person in receipt of Deserted Wife's Allowance has not succeeded in obtaining maintenance from him, the person should: - approach the local District Court Clerk with a view to taking out a maintenance summons - provide a copy of the maintenance summons to the Department or - provide proof that husband and wife are involved in structured mediation which includes negotiations about the financial support of the wife Whereabouts of husband unknown If a wife does not know whereabouts of her husband, she may be required to provide evidence that she has tried to trace her husband e.g. proof that she had reported him missing to the Gardai If wife thinks spouse is resident in another country Wife may be requested to ask the Department of Social Security (in the case of the UK) to help trace her husband with a view to serving a maintenance summons on him, or to initiate proceedings through the central authority (the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform) designated in the Maintenance Act 1994, which covers reciprocal maintenance action in EU and a number of other countries. The "Efforts Condition" is regarded as being satisfied: - if the separated couple is involved in a structured mediation process which addresses the husband's liability to maintain his wife - if husband is working in this country or abroad and the wife approaches the District Court Clerk and requests that a maintenance summons be served on him - if the wife takes her husband to court for maintenance but the amount awarded is less than the rate of Deserted Wife's Allowance, or the husband refuses to pay any maintenance or pays at a rate less than the appropriate Deserted Wife's Allowance rate; - if the wife cannot trace her husband and has made an effort to do so, for example by reporting him as missing to the Gardai etc. - if the husband is in receipt of a Social Welfare payment only, the wife is not required to take any action. - if current income of the husband is too low to reasonably expect that any maintenance payment can be made - if evidence is available to prove allegations that husband is violent and that there is a consequent risk to the wife in the event of further contact. The "Efforts Condition" is regarded as not being satisfied - if the wife refuses to involve herself in mediation which could address, among other things, financial support from her husband - if the wife refuses or fails to make any efforts to trace her husband; - if she refuses or fails to take her husband to court for maintenance, or varying order, where the husband has an adequate source of income and his address is known; - where inadequate or unreasonable maintenance is in payment, given the circumstances of the husband. Retention/Destruction of Files Documents in respect of an application for payment are retained and are not destroyed until the expiration of two complete calendar years after tthe year of death of the claimant. A random sample of 10% of files due to be so destroyed are retained for archival purposes in accordance with the National Archives Act.

Eolas Is dhá íocaíocht iad Sochar Banchéile Thréigthe agus Liúntas Banchéile Thréigthe a íoctar le mná ar thréig a bhfear céile iad. Dúnadh an dá íocaíocht seo d'iarratais nua i mí Eanáir 1997 nuair a seoladh an Íocaíocht Teaghlaigh Aontuismitheora Leanadh le híoc Sochair Bhanchéile Thréigthe agus Liúntais Bhanchéile Thréigthe le roinnt ban mar bhí siad cáilithe don íocaíocht roimh 2 Eanáir 1997 agus comhlíonann siad na critéir cháilithe go fóill. Rialacha Is íocaíocht do bhean ar thréig a fear céile í an Sochar Banchéile Thréigthe. Tá teidlíocht don íocaíocht bunaithe ar ranníocaíochtaí árachais shóisialaigh atá íoctha ag an mbean nó ag a fear céile. Má tá go leor ranníocaíochtaí ÁSPC íoctha agat (ní ag d'fhear céile) is féidir leat aistriú go Pinsean Stáit (Idirthréimse) agus 65 bliain d'aois sroichte agat. Íoctar Pinsean Stáit (Aistriú) ag ráta níos airde ná an Sochar Banchéile Thréigthe. Is féidir le mná atá ag fáil Sochar Banchéile Thréigthe aistriú go Pinsean Stáit (Ranníocach) nuair atá 66 bliain d'aois sroichte acu. Má bhí ort aistriú ó Shochar Banchéile Thréigthe go hÍocaíocht Teaghlaigh Aontuismitheora chun a bheith aitheanta mar rannpháirtí ar Scéim Fostaíochta Pobail, is féidir leat anois iarratas a chur isteach chun an Sochar Banchéile Thréigthe a athbhunú. Tá an t-uasráta íocaíochta seachtainiúil don Sochar Banchéile Thréigthe níos airde ná an t-uasráta seachtainiúil don Íocaíocht Teaghlaigh Aontuismitheora. Má cháilíonn tú d'athbhunú do theidlíochta don Sochar Banchéile Thréigthe tá seans ann go mbeidh riaráistí ag dul duit chomh maith. Is íocaíocht de réir tástála acmhainne an Liúntas Banchéile Thréigthe do mhná faoi 66 bliain d'aois, nach bhfuil leanaí cleithiúnacha acu agus ar thréig a bhfear céile iad agus nach bhfuil cáilithe don Sochar Banchéile Thréigthe. Aistreofar go huathoibríoch mná atá ag fáil an Liúntais Bhanchéile Thréigthe go dtí Pinsean Stáit (Neamh-Ranníocach) nuair atá 66 bliain d'aois bainte amach acu. Rátaí Rátaí do Shochar Banchéile Thréigthe í 2016 Rátaí laghdaithe Sochair Bhanchéile Thréigthe Ó Bhealtaine 2007, gheobhaidh tú an t-uasráta Sochair Bhanchéile Thréigthe bunaithe ar do ranníocaíochtaí ÁSPC má tá d'ioncam bliantúil níos lú ná €20,000. Má tá d'ioncam bliantúil níos mó ná €20,000 gheobhaidh tú leath-ráta Sochair Bhanchéile Thréigthe ar feadh sé mhí. Tá seans ann freisin go bhfaighidh tú ráta laghdaithe Sochair mura bhfuil go leor ranníocaíochtaí ÁSPC íoctha agat chun a bheith cáilithe don uasráta. Is féidir le do thuilleamh agus gan go leor ranníocaíochtaí ÁSPC a bheith íoctha agat ag an am céanna d'íocaíocht a laghdú. Tugtar faoi deara le do thoil nach mbaineann ráta laghdaithe Sochair Bhanchéile Thréigthe bunaithe ar thuilleamh nógan go leor íocaíochtaí ÁSPC a bheith íoctha agat le héilimh a cuireadh isteach roimh an 31 Lúnasa 1992. Rátaí Liúntais Bhanchéile Thréigthe í 20116 Conas iarratas a dhéanamh Ní féidir iarratas a chur isteach a thuilleadh ar Shochar Banchéile Thréigthe ná ar Liúntas Banchéile Thréigthe - dúnadh na híocaíochtaí seo d' iarratasóirí nua ó Eanáir 1997 i leith.
