Your not allowed to work at all if you are claiming dole
why not insist be paid in cash, its only 2 hours a week

JustLittleMe: If your on the dole? If your offered 2 hours work in a whole week, would that effect your dole?
If the 2 hours are in one day it's counted as 1 day work. If it's spread over more than that.. every day you work even a few minutes is counted as a day's work.
Moneywise... if you are on Benefit (stamps) you lose a day's benefit for each day you work.
If you are on Allowance (means tested) you take the daily rate of pay, deduct €10, 60% of the balance is the amount you lose each day you work.
Hope this helps.

Of course you're allowed to work.. as long as you declare it. You get paid for the days you don't work.
Cash in hand is still found out in the end. Inspectors do spot checks on ALL businesses. All employees on the premises are interviewed and checked to see if they are claiming and if they have declared their work.
All employers, by law, must notify when they take on someone. They are automatically prosecuted if they don't!!

Not many lone parents work when they are claiming the social
The social is enough, they dont need to work

You can work full time as a lone parent as long as your gross earnings are under €425 per week. the first €146.50 of your earnings are disregarded as means and anything over that .. a percentage is taken as means.

This is true.

So that means if she works 2 hours a week each hour on a monday and a wednesday lets say she would get paid 16 euro for 2 days work,
She would get more if she claimed her benefit and worked the 2 hours cash in hand, No point in declaring it and working 2 hours a week and not telling the social wont get you caught, I know somebody who delivers pizzas cash in hand works 32 hours a week and claims his social, hes been doing that for 2 years now and hasnt been caught

If she was paid €16 for 2 hours work over 2 days that's €8 per day. The first €10 per day is disregarded so she wouldn't lose anything!!!
And the guy who delivers Pizzas will be caught! And will have to repay every penny overpaid or go to jail!
Although as you claim to be in Co. Down the rules may be different as Irish law would not apply and things may be done differently.
ok i,ll stop there
Zizzles: wouldnt like to be him
he says if he gets caught hes off to Australia

Why doesnt he just go now and not get caught??

I have an address in the republic and an address in The north,
I dont think he will be caught sure every other delivery driver that works there is claiming dole and they have been doing it since the place has opened which is 7 or 8 years now, hope hes not caught

The hourly rate for delivering a pizza is 6 euro plus whatever tips you get, Its not great money, most people only use it as a supplement to there dole
