I think I am going to be umemployed soon, I never been on the dole before. I was wounder what payments I am entitled to? is it only the Job seeker payments?

I am 32 years old with 2 kids, one of them is Autistic, no income for my wife. my salary is about 50K yearly. I think my PRSI code is A1. I am working since 2006. I am renting in Lucan-dublin and my rent is 800 per month

Can someone please help me how to calculate my SW payments? is there any other payments I would be entitled too?

Thanks
