How Much Is Dole Money in the UK?

The amount of Dole money given to jobseekers in the U.K. depends on a number of factors, including the age of the jobseeker and the type of allowance applied for. The contribution-based jobseekers allowance is valid for six months. The overall payout is between 57 and 72 pounds a week.

This amount is paid out every two weeks. It is only applicable to those who paid a certain amount in National Insurance contributions in the past two years. The amount of savings a person has normally does not determine how much he ends up receiving. The income-based program uses a number of factors to determine the amount a person gets, including marital status and age.
