I need a bit of help. I was receiving job seekers allowance at the rate of €100 a week, as I am under 25 (I think that's the age when you receive the full allowance). I went to college this year, where I received the back to education allowance as I had been on the job seekers allowance for the required number of days to receive the back to education allowance. I received a rate of €188 on the back to education allowance.

I've tried to find employment over the Summer but to no success so far. I am just wondering, will my job seekers allowance over the Summer be €100 or €188? I plan on returning to college in September but I am still only 21 so I'm not sure what rate I will be receiving. Does anybody know?
