Yes it's simply signing on. Perhaps I used the word meeting loosely but as I never had one before no idea what happens .Are you sure it's a meeting you are having? Are you not simply attending your local office to sign on?
Depending on your age (if under age 62), they may enquire as to what efforts you are making to get employment or they may offer you a "course".
Process ok
Was it a long queue or just a quick in and out?
boscod,
suggest ,
1. write to social welfare , Buncrana Co Donegal quote your oosn number and request your contribution statement, you can then work out your yearly average etc to see where you are really at.
2. I think if you stop signing you will not be credited for future pension , so I would not stop signing until you have clarity over 1.
