Rent Allowance / Social Welfare Payment

[gipimann]

So, in other words, you're better off not taking the little bit of work?

After travel and lunch this person probably came out with E50 profit. Yet had E70 taken. So in reality they lost E20 for actually trying to go out and get working.

The system is nuts.

That's how means-tested payments of Supplementary Welfare Allowance work. Jobseekers payments may operate differently.
