    Whilst your claim is being processed you can pay the health board or the community welfare officer a visit and they will issue you with payment if they deem it fit.

    Yep, that's my understanding.

    Would you agree they can't claim SW until after 3 months, so they can't claim Supplementary Welfare until then?

    So have we got the best ratio of JA:Cost of living?... i.e even though our cost of living is high, our high dole still makes Ireland the best choice for anyone looking for a country to live off.

    Is there a country with a better ratio?

    Or is it the fact Ireland is small, that immigrants choose here?

    From April 2011, immigrants from Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Hungary, Lithuania, Slovakia, Slovenia and the Czech Republic - where income levels are 40% of the European average - will be allowed to claim Jobseekers' Allowance and other benefits after just three months. This is provided they can prove that they have been actively seeking work, undergone training or attended job interviews.

    Ho, ho, ho. This should be fun. It will bring a new wave of tourists into the Irish state, unfortunately, they will be welfare tourists.:rolleyes:

    Supplementary Welfare Allowance - Will I Qualify » Publications » The Department of Social and Family Affairs

    They would have to satisfy a residency test IrishManSapain, so it's unlikely they'll get SWA if they've only landed here.

    Cancel that panic then!

    That's insane.

    And of course there is nothing to supplement your 'reporting duties' on why it was such an egregious post.

    Yet another Daily Heil article. Do they publish any newspapers in Ireland these days at all?

    If people are going to give out about inward migration to Ireland on an irish message board, at least use a source thats fair (not right wing), and from an irish perspective.

    The Mail is possibly the worst paper in the world, they make stuff up, selectively edit two name but two things. It is a disgrace.

    The legislation will come into affect in 2011.

    Who said anything about the Mail. Wasn't the link you quoted NOT the Mail?

    Edit: Okay, the writer is a Mail writer. But, is he telling absolute porkies?

    Rights of jobseekers in other member states
    The European Court of Justice has ruled (in Cases C-22/08 and C-23/08) that a jobseeker who has established genuine links with the labour market of a member state can receive a benefit of a financial nature intended to facilitate access to employment. No matter how it is classified under national law, such a benefit is not ‘social assistance’ which member states may generally refuse to jobseekers. It is not yet clear how exactly this ruling will be applied but it does seem to suggest that migrant workers who have been working in Ireland for some time and who are seeking Jobseeker’s Allowance (JA) may be able to qualify for JA based on their status as workers under the rules on free movement of labour even if they do not meet the habitual residence requirements.

    In fairness more Polish women would really help raise the standards of women in Ireland. Give them all the money they want.

    I tried to start a debate, instead I got the mass immigrationists throwing mud and trying to veer the thread off topic.

    Can someone answer the following question.

    Is this new policy going to be mandatory, and across the board for all member states? If so, please provide a credible source.
