You may get some payment but I'd imagine it will be quite low if you get anything at all, his earnings do seem high.

Sign for credits if you do get disallowed

Thank u, well nothing is set in stone just yet do I tell the social if he gets a job that we want to sign for credits?

Yes you need to ask about signing for credits.You also might want to look into FIS if he gets the job.

If his gross is €600 you will still be entitled to some payment on jsa roughly €50 pw. Notify sw when he gets employment and they will require 3 payslips from him to re-assess your means so your claim maybe payment suspended for a time. He can also apply for FIS and you will advised which is better financially for you as a family.

Thanks for the replies apparently they should let him know next week, before he goes round the twist being unemployed
