Just as an update, on Friday I received the first week's casual docket that has to be signed and stamped by my employer each week, back in the post with a post it note attached stating that one of the boxes had not been completed. All that was missing was an O to indicate that I was working that day. It had taken over a month for this to be noticed, then instead of just ringing me to clarify they went to the time and expense of sending it back. I took it back in and expressed my annoyance that they had wasted time and money for what could have been sorted with a 10 second phone call, it makes me wonder if they are actually looking to find reasons to delay claims.
I have been told my claim has been approved and I should be receiving a cheque this week, so that's a 6 week wait!
Does anyone have any idea what the wait times are for hearing about jobseekers benefit for casual workers. I submitted by claim 4 weeks ago but heard nothing. I have been completing and posting in the yellow dockets each week. I couldn't find anything on the welfare.it site and local heresay suggests anything between 2 and 8 weeks.
Waiting for dole? I organised a small blog post about waiting times in Ireland. Visit my blog to find out official information....My suggestion: If you are still waitng for your dole cheque call to Social Welfare or please contact the Information Section info@welfare.ie Give them your PPS number and name. I know this worked for few people.
