    Back to Education Allowance is paid at a standard rate, so if you are currently getting a reduced rate of payment, you will be entitled the maximum standard rate of payment. If you are already getting the maximum rate, you will continue to do so.

    If you are getting an unemployment payment, you will be paid a Back to Education Allowance equivalent to the maximum standard rate of Jobseeker's Benefit or Jobseeker's Allowance. It will include any increases for a qualified adult and qualified children.

    Back to Education Allowance is payable in the same way as your current social welfare payment.

    Jobseeker's Allowance, at least until the budget, is 204.30 euros per week.
