Contact Farm Assist

There is no separate Farm Assist section to ring. Phone the National Intreo Contact Centre, or call in to your local Intreo Centre.

Farm Assist is applied for through your local Intreo Centre or Social Welfare Branch Office.

Benefits.ie is an independent guide and can't deal with your claim. Please contact your welfare office using the details on this page.

Have your PPS number to hand. You will be asked for it first.
Many changes of circumstance can be done online through MyWelfare without ringing at all.
If you are appealing a decision, you have 60 days from the date on the decision letter.
