Housing Adaptation Grant for Disabled People Scheme
The Housing Adaptation Grant Scheme for disabled people is available to assist in the carrying out of works that are necessary for the purposes of rendering a house more suitable for the accommodation of a disabled person who is a member of the household. An Occupational Therapist's report may be required outlining the recommended proposed works. The grant is means tested and the level of grant is determined on the basis of gross income of the homeowner and their spouse (if applicable) for the previous tax year. The maximum household income limit is €75,000 and the maximum grant available is €40,000. Refund on the VAT amount can be recouped from the Revenue Commissioners when payment has been issued by the Council.
