I plan to retire early in about 3 or 4 years at the age of 60 or 61 and have a plan to spend 6 months in France in a home that I own and 6 months back in Ireland.
My living costs will be €28,000 per year and to pay for that I have a pension of €100,000 that I can draw from at the rate of €25k now and €18k per year after I retire tax free.
My question is when I return from France I intend to work hopefully for 6 months which is to help pay for the next 6 months away.
If I cannot find a job am I entitled to claim Jobseekers allowance or would I be looked at as not looking for a full time job and therefore not entitled to claim assistance.
I have been working for 42 years and have never claimed for assistance before.
I have no mortgage and live with my daughter and just have a yearly expense of about €28,000.
