Transfer of JB to the UK

kelledy

HEY

I will be transfering my JB around April to UK.
i know this has been asked a thousand times but i cant seem to find info on anybody who has experienced this.
my question is .,. when you arrive in the uk how long of a wait can i expect before my money is paid into irish account. ??
Surley sombody has an idea on this??
I have address and NI num etc .

Also another question which is kind of a grey area is ... just before i want to leave to go to UK i have a 3 week Fas course I HAVE to do . Its pretty much the only reason i havent gone yet.
My question is will that be included in the 4 weeks prior to my departure. Surley they wudnt expect me to wait another 4 weeks on completion of the 3 weeks in FAS??????

Any help?????:):pac:

How long it takes will depend on how long it takes the DWP to send the confirmation that you have signed on there to DSP here. It is usually about 2 weeks.
After your FAS course you will need to sign back on. I would make sure that they don't close the claim but only suspend it temp fas course otherwise you will have to wait for a decision again which could delay things. I wold call in to your local office in person in advance of going on the course.

well considering im using my prsi contributions i think theres little decsion they need to make.... im entitled to it and thats that as far as im conserned. . yea i thought as much with the FAS course but surley these things are run side by side considering one funds the other.
