To help you qualify for Illness Benefit you may combine your Irish PRSI contributions with your social insurance record from any country covered by EU Regulations (and also the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man which are covered under a Bilateral Agreement). EU Regulations apply to people who travel and work within the European Economic Area (EEA). They allow workers to combine periods of social insurance in any of the EEA countries to help them qualify for a benefit or pension. Social insurance contributions paid in countries other than those listed above do not count for Illness Benefit purposes. Under EU Regulations the country in which you were last insurably employed is generally responsible for paying you while you are unable to work due to an illness or injury. If you live in Ireland and last worked in another country covered by EU Regulations - Send your application for Illness Benefit to this Department and specify the EU country in which you were last employed. - We will send your application to that country and contact you about any further action regarding your application. If you live in Ireland and last worked in Ireland, but previously worked in another country (or countries) covered by EU Regulations You may combine your insurance record in the other country (or countries) with your Irish PRSI contributions to help you qualify for benefit. Send your application to this Department with details of your employment in the other country/countries, or form E104 which you should request from the Social Security Office of the country/countries where you previously worked. Note: Form E104 is a record of social security contributions you have paid while employed in countries covered by EU Regulations. It is used only when applying for sickness benefit in the EEA area. If you do not have form E104 we will get your insurance record for you using the information you have provided.

Chun cabhrú leat cáiliú don Sochar Breoiteachta, féadfaidh tú do ranníocaíochtaí ÁSPC Éireannacha a chur le do thaifead árachais shóisialaigh ó aon tír faoi chumhdach Rialacháin an Aontais Eorpaigh (agus freisin Oileáin Mhuir nIocht agus Oileán Mhanann atá faoi chumhdach Comhaontaithe Dhéthaobhaigh). Tá feidhm ag Rialacháin an Aontais Eorpaigh (AE) i gcás na ndaoine a thaistealaíonn agus a oibríonn laistigh den Limistéar Eacnamaíoch Eorpach (LEE). Ceadaíonn siad d’oibrithe tréimhsí árachais shóisialaigh in aon cheann de thíortha an LEE a chur le chéile chun cabhrú leo cáiliú do shochar nó do phinsean. Is iad na tíortha atá faoi chumhdach Rialacháin an AE ná: Ó thaobh na ranníocaíochtaí árachais shóisialaigh a íocadh i dtíortha seachas iad siúd ar an liosta thuas, ní chuirtear san áireamh iad chun críocha an tSochair Bhreoiteachta. Faoi Rialacháin an AE, tá an tír ina raibh fostaíocht inárachaithe agat an uair dheireanach freagrach i gcoitinne as sochar a íoc leat le linn duit gan a bheith in ann obair a dhéanamh de dheasca breoiteachta nó díobhála. Má chónaíonn tú in Éirinn agus má d’oibrigh tú an uair dheireanach i dtír a bhí faoi chumhdach Rialacháin an AE: - Cuir d’iarrtas ar an Sochar Breoiteachta chuig an Roinn seo agus sonraigh tír an AE inar fostaíodh thú an uair dheireanach. - Cuirfimid d’iarratas chuig an tír sin agus déanfaimid teagmháil leat faoi aon bheart breise i dtaobh d’iarratais. Má chónaíonn tú in Éirinn agus má d’oibrigh tú an uair dheireanach in Éirinn, ach má d’oibrigh tú roimhe sin i dtír (nó i dtíortha) eile a bhí faoi chumhdach Rialacháin an AE: Féadfaidh tú do thaifead árachais sa tír (nó sna tíortha) eile a chur le do ranníocaíochtaí ÁSPC Éireannacha chun cabhrú leat cáiliú do shochar. Cuir d’iarratas chuig an Roinn seo mar aon le sonraí de d’fhostaíocht sa tír (nó sna tíortha) eile, nó foirm E104 ar chóir duit í a iarraidh ar Oifig Slándála Sóisialaí na tíre (nó na dtíortha) inar oibrigh tú roimhe sin. Tabhair faoi deara Is éard atá san fhoirm E104 ná taifead ar ranníocaíochtaí slándála sóisialaí atá íoctha agat i dtíortha atá faoi chumhdach Rialacháin an AE. Ní bhaintear feidhm aisti ach nuair a dhéantar iarratas ar shochar breoiteachta i limistéar an LEE. Mura bhfuil foirm E104 agat gheobhaimid do thaifead árachais duit trí úsáid a bhaint as an eolas atá curtha ar fáil agat.
