The person concerned is currently in receipt of Jobseeker’s Allowance at the weekly rate of €246.70 which is the correct payment for a person of her circumstances.
The spouse of the person concerned is in receipt of Illness Benefit at the full personal weekly rate of €203. The person concerned therefore receives the difference between the appropriate family rate of €449.70 and €203 personal rate to which her partner is entitled, giving her a weekly Jobseeker’s Allowance entitlement of the balance of €246.70
It is open to the person concerned to contact her Intreo Centre by phone at 045 491500 or email at Newbridge@welfare.ie if she has any queries regarding her entitlement.
I trust this clarifies the matter.
