    Hi im really hoping someone can help me with this, im on jobseekers allowance but actively looking for work, my partner and i are cohabiting and have a young baby, my partner is working full time and were not in reciept of any other benefit like rent allowance, fis, medical cards etc, i got a letter about my payment saying €226 is my means and will be deducted from the family rate that applies to you, just not sure what my family rate is? Any advice on this would be great, I can give more details if needed just were both worried sick as we're just about getting by as it is. Thanks

    So does that mean I'd be on 116 a week?

    If the letter you got states that €226 will be deducted from your family then yes.
