Hi, everyone if you can please help me i am very confused !

I got a cheque today, ( i applied Jobseekers alowance in Febr 2014)
It is for 214.70 euro,says that its for the period of 10/02/2014 .

Also it has a payslip attached to it, saying :
entitlements flat 5890.70 euro
deductions means 5766 euro
net amount 124. 70 euro
Also for the period of 10/02/2014 to 16/09/2014.

Question is : what is this 124 euro? is this the amount i ll get weekly or is this for the whole 9 month waiting ? ( back payment)

Sorry but i really dont understand.
Thanks a lot for your help!!

Did you get €186 per week SWA while waiting or do you have a partner who has income?

If your partner is working then you will be means tested against his wages. Depending on how much he earns and how many days a week he is working etc. you may actually be entitled to very little.
