Collecting Job Seekers

daithi666

How does it work? Have I to collect it every week or month?

Thing is I may be out of the country for a little bit and miss a few payments. Is it possible to collect them at a later date? Or can you only collect it on the exact date?

Thanks in advance.

You must collect them every week they only last 3 days, otherwise they will expire. You can only be out of the country for 2 weeks afterthat your not entiltled to payment.

Do they assume if you don't collect more than 2 that you are out of the country?

What do I need for collecting Job Seekers? Is it just the PPS card?

if your on job seekers and your spouse is working. Can you Increase your spouses tax band and give x amount of credits so as to no pay tax on the job seekers , and reduce your spouse's tax bill? If previouslty indicidually assessed.

Go into your local office and fill in a holiday form stating the dates you will be out of the country, you are entitled to 2 weeks holidays a year. They will then ask you to come back into the office when you return and will reissue your expired payments.

I've passed all by tax credits to my wife. You can transfer as much or as little as you like - just call the local PAYE office.
