    Husband is on pup, I'm on jsa. Full rate for me and 3 kids. My husband just got a full time job, just this mean I'm now not entitled to anything, is there a cut-off point where I can still get something?

    You may qualify for Working Family Payment if your husbands income is below the threshold for it.

    Can you post a rough idea of his gross weekly wages?

    You might still qualify for a reduced payment of JA depending on his income or he might be better off applying for WFP.

    Impossible to answer without figures provided.

    Gross per week is roughly €580 per week

    Your JSA would be €162. I’m basing that on 2 kids under 12 and 1 over.

    WFP would be €113 but then you would no longer have to be looking for or available for full time work.

    Thanks so much, I couldn't find that information, you don't have a breakdown for that jsa payment do you? Per child and how much for over 12?
