. This is particularly true of unemployment benefit; what's the point in being off work if you have to get out of bed every twelve days?
Benefits were paid for through an individual's PRSI contributions - why shouldn't they be able to claim them in anothe EU country if that's the rule?

Don't forget that if I have managed to save a few hundred grand and become unemployed tomorrow then I could claim non means tested Jobseekers Benefit due to my past PRSI contributions.
I think this can be harsh, forcing people to collect benefits if they are e.g. hospitalised ... Signed on for stamps on the Tues, went back to bed again and was sick for the whole week ....
What about the irish non contributary pension.
Can one reside abroad and still get it?
Many of us here (including myself) have been made redundant and on dole so it's not like people don't know what that's like. Doesn't excuse fraud or false claims though.Welfarite
It is great to say 'this is fraud' if you have never been made redundant, or if you never found it hard to get work.
I hope things will always stay fine for you.
Yes as far as I know since you were not available for work so should not have been claiming UB/JB or UA/JA.I had the flu for a few days. Does this mean I should have signed off welfare and signed on for sickness benefit just for these few days.
Not sure what this non sequitur is all about to be honest...People are WELL able to say 'this is fraud etc', but they are also WELL able to go on the internet while pretending to be at work. Also they are well able to go to work, and do nothing, when they have hangovers. I think this is a worse fraud, taking 600 or 700 Euros a week, while doing nothing, and going on the internet.
Getting your benefits paid into ones bank a/c is the best way.
How are they supposed to look for work then?Personally, I believe able bodied and fit people on welfare should be made sign on a few times a day....
