    Well if you are available and looking for full time work, you should be eligible to apply for an unemployment payment.

    Go down to your local social welfare office, with your P45, photographic ID, and proof of your address. It seems that you would qualify for Jobseeker's Benefit payment, which is based on your PRSI contributions. This works out at €204.30 per week. These claims are not means tested, and are much quicker to be processed.

    Get down as soon as possible, as claims are not usually back dated.
