You will qualify if you, the carer: - have been employed for 8 weeks during the previous 26 weeks, - have enough PRSI contributions, - give up employment to care for somebody full-time (this employment must have been for at least 16 hours a week or 32 hours a fortnight), - are not self-employed or employed outside the home for more than 15 hours a week (see Section 4), and - are not living in a hospital, convalescent home or other similar institution. The person you are caring for must: - need full-time care and attention (a medical certificate is required), and - not normally live in a hospital, home or other similar institution. If you are caring for a child on Domiciliary Care Allowance from the Health Service Executive, you do not need to supply a medical certificate or be the person who receives that allowance on the child's behalf Note If two or more people are sharing caring duties, only one carer can claim the benefit.

Cáileoidh tú, an cúramóir: - má tá tú fostaithe ar feadh 8 seachtaine i rith na 26 seachtaine roimhe sin, - má tá go leor ranníocaíochtaí ÁSPC agat, - má éiríonn tú as do phost chun aire a thabhairt do dhuine éigin go lánaimseartha (caithfidh an fhostaíocht seo a bheith ar feadh 16 huaire in aghaidh na seachtaine nó 32 uair in aghaidh na coicíse ar a laghad), - mura bhfuil tú féinfhostaithe ná fostaithe lasmuigh den bhaile ar feadh níos mó ná 15 huaire sa tseachtain ( ( féach ar rannóg 4), agus - mura bhfuil tú i do chónaí in ospidéal, i dteach téarnaimh ná i bhforas eile dá leithéid. Ní mór don duine dá dtugann tú aire: - a bheith i ngátar cúraim agus aire lánaimseartha (is gá teastas dochtúra), agus - gan gnáthchónaí a bheith air/uirthi in ospidéal, i dteach altranais nó i bhforas eile dá leithéid. Má tá tú ag tabhairt aire do leanbh ar Liúntas Cúraim Bhaile ó Fheidhmeannacht na Seirbhíse Sláinte, ní gá duit teastas dochtúra a sholáthar ná ní gá gur tusa an duine a fhaigheann an liúntas sin ar son an linbh. Nóta Má tá beirt nó níos mó ag roinnt na ndualgas cúraim, níl cead ach ag cúramóir amháin an sochar a éileamh.
