Job seeker's benefit - over 24

rockyVII · 2013-08-22 20:15:19

Hi all, I am on job seekers benefit at the minute. I'm on €144 a week but I've been told that goes up to €188 once you're over 23. Is that true? I turned 23 yesterday. So will next week's cheque just have automatically increased? Or will I have to go into them? Any advice would be much appreciated!

Yeah, as the above poster said, you have to be 25 to get the full rate of €188.
