Income Protection

Income Insurance, also known as income protection provides you with a replacement income if you cannot work as a result of an illness or injury after a certain period of time. You can take out income insurance if you are in full-time work or are self-employed and earn an income. It protects you only in these circumstances – it will not be paid if you become unemployed.

Cost

Cost depends on your Age, Income, health, occupation and the benefits you choose. Payments on your plan are eligible for tax relief at your marginal rate of tax.

 

Benefits

It pays you a regular monthly income, replacing some of your earned income. Cover continues until the plan ends or you return to work.

  • The maximum benefit payable is now €250,000, previously this was €150,000. Benefits paid are less any State benefits or other income protection plans.
  • The maximum benefits payable is 75% of total yearly earnings, less any State benefits or other income protection plans.
