My wife and I are considering moving to Southern Ireland which is still part of the EU and from our research, we understand that as UK Nations and under the CTA we would not need to apply for Residencia and the 90 day rule, as it applies in other EU Countries, will not apply. However, my concern is in respect of the Medical Card process which is 'Means' tested.
Can anyone clarify if a pension is counted as an form of 'income' under their assessment process? Without the card we would have to pay for everything, including Doctors appointments.
Any other tips/advice would also be most welcome.
