Another JA question

Awwwwfook · 2011-11-24 15:30:12

If my gross wage is 538, take home is 460, my PRSI is 16.46, USC is 17.68, would my partner be able to claim JA. We also get FIS of around €25.

If you have no dependents I would say no, based on our situation last year.

Some one posted up how to work out your means here a while ago but as of yet I cant find it.

You cannot get FIS if you are taking part in a Community Employment Scheme or any other FÁS schemes except Job Initiative.
You cannot get FIS if you are getting one of the following social welfare payments:
Jobseeker's Benefit or Jobseeker's Allowance

State Pension (Transition), or Pre-Retirement Allowance

ah ok
I was getting my hopes up, I thought he might get something. We have one DD but I assume that wouldn't make much of a difference.

Thanks anyway
