Hey guys, quick dole question- living away from home at the minute, will be moving back home soon, does there normally be much of a delay in it being processed when switching social welfare branches??

I would imagine that if you are moving back to the family home after being in rented accomadation, that they will means test you, as living at home is seen as a benefit in kind.

I think if you are over 25, they don't take your parents income or place of living into account.
