Hi
I have a question my maternity benefit is finishing up the 11th Nov thats my full 26 weeks paid to me, Im due back to work the 21st Nov I am going back part time 20 hours a week. My job pays monthly so I wont be paid until the 15th Dec so that's nearly 5 weeks with me having no income I was reading up on SWA which I think I am entitled to but would like to know if anyone has any info on this before I go to the welfare officer im afraid they could tell me im entitled to nothing I have 2 kids 2yrs, and 5 months old. My partner is on JSA of €188.

Thanks.
 
You can apply for SWA while waiting on wages - any entitlements will be means-tested on your partner's income and any savings you might have.
