    Hoping someone can help me with this.

    Im 21 years old and currently finishing up an Accountancy Masters, due to start a job in September. Had been doing some substitute teaching for money on the side but as its the summer holidays, I cant do that anymore and will need some sort of money to keep me going up until September.

    Just wondering what I can claim, if anything?

    Any help greatly appreciated.

    contact your local citizens info office who should provide information & leaflets, also you can also go to your local social office and head for the information desk who should be able to help. just bring your PPS number and proof of address, ID

    I would doubt that you could claim anything tbh (i could be totally wrong). As you are not technically "available for and genuinely seeking work".

    I would take any work that would only last until September.

    Also, Ive paid PRSI since I was 17 and have been working part-time constantly since then.

    Isnt it a bit unreasonable to expect me to live off nothing all summer? I would take a part-time job if there was one but unfortunately there doesnt seem to be any going.
