There is no record of an application for Jobseeker’s Allowance received from the person concerned in my Department.

Should the person concerned wish to submit an application, the easiest way to do so is online at .

If the person concerned is experiencing financial difficulty while awaiting the outcome of her Jobseeker’s Allowance, it is open to her to contact her local community welfare service to seek assistance under the Supplementary Welfare Allowance Scheme. Information for schemes administered by my Department can be viewed at the Department’s website www.Gov.ie

I trust this clarifies the matter.
