Do I put Jobseekers Benefit on the Med1 form?

    Hi, hopefully I'm asking this in the right place...

    I'm filling in the Med1 form to claim for last year but I'm just a bit confused by the section for income details. I was working until the end of August and I've filled in all my pay and tax details for that. But I've been on Jobseekers Benefit since September 1st - do I put this in as the 'Total Income from other sources not subject to PAYE'?

    Also, if I do have to include it, do I just work the total out as €188 multiplied by however many weeks from Sept 1st to Dec 31st? I've read something online about the first €13 of each payment not being subject to tax so that's confusing me too...

    Thanks.

    Just do it via your paye anytime account. If you are posting in an online forum then you can manage paye anytime.
    Alternatively leave the DSP payment section blank on the hard copy form. When the form is eventually processed by a Revenue staff member, they will have your taxable DSP payments on file anyway.
