Does anyone know which form I'll be entitled to: Income based or Contributions based?
I'm 30, married and have been working full-time since I graduated in 2001.
Also my husband earns just above the average UK salary - will his earnings come into it?
Cheers.

You will receive contributions-based JSA for six months and after then nothing - you will be assessed as a couple then.0

Really bad that, espically in today's climate. I mean you get penalised for having a partner whom earns their own money.0
