jsa amount

mistress_gi · 2014-05-05 21:51:37

Hi everyone! So I just wanted a bit of confirmation on the value of my jsa. So I am unemployed and I am getting 68 euros a week jsa because my husband works full time he earns just over 20500 a year so the math for my jsa seems off. Any help?

It still sounds a bit off all right. As eastbono said, only certain things are deducted like PRSI and Superannuation. But it looks like they used earnings of around €465 per week when in reality he's probably only earning around €400 topline. Would this be correct? Query it with your Local Office, it does sound wrong.
