    Hi
    I recently married my Brazilian Girl Friend, meaning that she has now acquired stamp 4. Previously she was a part time student with stamp 2 and had a job off the books for pocket money so the last time she paid PRSI was in 2009 for almost 2 years.
    What are her entitlements when it comes to job seekers allowance or unemployment benefit?
    Regards,
    DZ

    Means-tested. So your earnings will reduce her payment, possibly to zero.

    She should be careful about claiming any sort of state support payments if she intends applying for citizenship in the future.
