Hi,

how long do i have to collect my money from the post office. I am getting JB and have to collect it from the post office. My friend is also getting JB but he is getting his money in to his bank account. He is longer unemployed than i am.
Thanks for every answer.

Regards
Sarah
 
Because of benefit frauds electronic payments to bank accounts have been stopped , you will have to continue to collect your benefit at the Post Office
 
Yes you have to collect it from the same post office every week, which you nominate when you sign on.



You have 3 days in which to collect it before its taken back by the social welfare.
 
i thought after 6 months of being on sw that you could get it in to your bank account
 
Are you sure you have 3 days to collect ,i was of the understanding that it had to be collected on the day or was taken off the screen .
Can you verify this situation .Thanks
 
Jobseeker and Supplementary Welfare Allowance payments are available in the Post Office from the specified payment date until close of business on Tuesday of the following week.

Depending on the specific payment day, this allows anything from 4 to 9 days to collect payment.
For example if payment day is Friday, you can collect payment on Friday, Saturday, Monday or Tuesday.
If payment day is Monday, you can collect payment on Monday to Saturday, or Monday or Tuesday of the following week.
Payments are returned by An Post to SW on Tuesday nights.

As far as I'm aware, there are different arrangements for pensioners and one parent family payments.
