    She has about 6 years of PRSI payments including all of last year (the relevant tax year).

    I know JSB can be transferred to another EU country for 3 months. I don't know how difficult it is though.

    What sort of criteria does she need to meet? Can French citizens avail of this?

    If you quit your job you won't be entitled to jobseekers for a period of time, think its 9 weeks

    (JB) may be transferred to another EEA member state for up to 13 weeks (78 days), if you are looking for work there. You must be getting Jobseeker's Benefit for 4 weeks before you can transfer it to another EEA member state (this requirement can be waived in some instances). From 1 May 2010 new EU Regulations came into effect which mean that if you apply to transfer your Jobseeker's Benefit, it will be paid directly to you. If an Increase for a Qualified Adult (IQA) or Increases for Qualified Children (IQC) are being paid you continue to be paid these in the normal way (whether your dependents travel abroad with you or not).

    You are still required to register with the employment services of the country where you have gone to look for work within a week. If you are leaving Ireland to move to Northern Ireland or Britain, your Intreo Centre or Social Welfare Branch Office will issue you with the Form U2 (formerly Form E303) which you take to the UK social services. If you are moving to another EU country, the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection will send the U2 form to your new address in that EU country. You may transfer your JB payment more than once while you are unemployed provided you do not exceed the maximum period of 13 weeks.

    If you are claiming JB, you can claim increases for your qualified adult and children who are living in another EEA member state.
