Hi there,
I've looked at previous posts similar to my question and I think my DH should be entitled to claim JA, but a friend in similar circumstances earning similar money told me she tried to claim while her husband worked and did not meet the criteria. I'm just looking for confirmation or advice on the subject.
My situation is as follows:
I am employed full time, earning approx €450 per week after standard deductions, but before tax. So using the formula on the SW website;
€450 - €60 (€20 disregard for each day worked, up to 3 days)
=€390.
60%/€390 = €234 (our assessable means)
Maximum amount for 2 adults and two children = €371
€371 - €234 = €137
Am I correct in thinking that he is entitled to €137 per week?
Appreciate any answers.
