    I have been on jobseekers for over two years and have been accepted on a third level course.
    However I had to sign off for two days a number of months ago as I got 2 days work.
    Will this disqualify me from my entitlement to BTEA?

    Here is the link to where I found this info so the 2 days should have no effect, also if u have 234days on jobseekers since the 2 days linking period is not needed.

    http://www.welfare.ie/EN/OperationalGuidelines/Pages/bte_all.aspx

    1.11 Linking Periods
    Periods spent on other relevant Social Welfare Payments, that are not broken by more than 12 months (52 weeks), can be used in determining if an applicant satisfies the qualifying period criteria.

    This info is about 1/3 way down the page.
    Hope this helps
