    Hi Munster Girl. I'm in Dublin and have clients who are working up to 3 days a week and claim the other 3 from social welfare on JSA (Social Welfare payments are based on 6 days per week). It's not a problem, they have to hand in a form weekly that confirms their working days and their payment is then adjusted. So, if they work 2 days they are paid for 4, if they work 3 days they are paid for 3 etc. If they go over 3 days p/w they are not paid for that week as Social Welfare deems this to be full-time. It's a common situation and seems to be organised very quickly (basically, Social Welfare want you to be working, even if it's part-time) - don't worry, talk to your local office and it should be fine. Good luck.
