## Resource

Starting tomorrow, July 2nd, Carer’s Allowance rules in Cork are getting a major upgrade—single carers can now earn up to €1,000 weekly before it impacts their allowance, up from €625, while couples see their threshold jump to €2,000 from €1,250. This means more people will qualify, and existing recipients will see their payments rise significantly—some part-time workers earning up to €50,000 annually could still get full allowance.
