Supplemtary Welfare Allowance and working part time

daver123

Hi,

Pls could someone advise how much i would get from SWA if i get the part time job. I currently get 186 per week and also get 390 in mortgage interest supplement per month. I think i will be earning around 120 per day for 3 days a week ( no sunday work ). Would anyone know how much the MIS would be reduced by. The contract will be for 3 months ( 13 weeks ) in total so i would hope to earn around 4680.

Thanks Dave

Have you applied for JSA or JSB and are getting swa while waiting for your claim?

You will have to do a new means test when you start working,unless you were to post more details ie married/single,no of kids you might be better off starting here http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/social_welfare/social_welfare_payments/supplementary_welfare_schemes/mortgage_interest_supplement.html
