I am currently working 20hours a week earning 179. I claim 259 with my opf and 158 fis payment. I want to give up my opf and just work and claim fis.

The thing I am wondering is when my fis is up for renewal and I have to wait 20 odd weeks could i claim job seekers for the days I dont work or can you claim swa while you wait for fis to come through?? If I could does anyone know how much I would be entitled to? I have 3 kids I work 2.5 days a week.

Thanks all
