    Hey people - finished my college course there last may. Been working a summer job since which has finished up now and as we all know no jobs out there :( . living with my grandparent currently as I can't afford rent! I'm just wondering is living with your grandparent treated the same as living with your parents when you are 24 or under? Checked citizensinformation.ie but couldnt see any answer. How much dole would i be entitled to a week? thanks in advance

    Grandparents aren't the same as parents for the purposes of the means test so unless you have income or capital above the threshold and you're 20 or up, you'll likely get the full 204 euro pw.
