Hi all, I am currently waiting to receive my letter to say I can go and collect my first job seekers (the one that isn't means tested). I am eligible for the full amount- €196. How much of this will be cut if I was to take part time work say 2/3 days a week?

Depends which days they are, Sundays aren't counted.

Someone else can probably give a more accurate answer but from what I've heard from people I know in the situation they're stopped half of what they earn from their dole payments.
