    If your going to live with him then you will go to the SW office with his payslip and ask for him to be added to your claim
    This means that you will get approx €108 per week Jobseekers
    So you will be living on :
    €108 Jobseekers
    +€400 wages
    =€508 total
    If your rent is €200 per week then this leaves you €300 per week for everything else
    In my opinion you will find it hard to live like that
