Returning from Uk and benefits

    I'm Irish and I worked for about 3 years in Ireland after college before moving to London and working there for 5 years. I moved back to Ireland to a job here in May 2015 and stayed until November 2016, roughly 18 months. The job did not work out so my old company took me back in the UK and I have been with them since.
    I haven't settled back in London and realize moving back was a mistake. I want to go back to Ireland and look for jobs in Dublin

    Would I be entitled to Job Seekers benefit as I have 10 months full contributions in 2016 or do I disqualify for that because I went back to London after that?

    No your good to go for PRSI purposes but you might have an issue with the “suffered a loss of employment “ clause but just explain that London wasn’t working out for you and it’ll probably be ok.
