    Hi all. I have a quick question. I have started on the Tus program recently. I am working 19.5 hours a week. I was wondering, would it be possible for me to still receive the Job Seekers Allowance and be paid for the rest of those days that I'm not working or no?

    Thanks.

    How many days a week do you work ?

    If your Jobseeker’s Allowance payment (including increases for dependants) was €203 a week or less, then you will get the minimum Tús weekly rate of €225.50 (that is €203 plus €22.50). If your weekly Jobseeker’s Allowance (including any increases for dependants) was €203 or more, then you will get the equivalent rate plus €22.50 (there are some exceptions to this)
