Student grant holders to receive additional December payment

Minister for Further and Higher Education Simon Harris has stated that all student grant holders would receive an additional student grant payment in mid-December.

All maintenance recipients will get an extra payment on December 16 as part of the Budget 2023 package for students.

This payment will imply an extra €679 for certain students before the conclusion of the year.

Almost 50,000 pupils across the country will benefit from this.

Student scholarships will be increased by 10% to 14% beginning in January.

A one-time payment of €1,000 towards student costs will also be made soon.

This week, higher education institutions will begin contacting eligible students to obtain the account information needed to complete a refund.

Over 1.4 million individuals will receive the Autumn Double Social Protection Payment this week.

The State pension and weekly welfare benefits are included in this double payout.
