You can claim JSA pretty much straight away as far as I am aware, but you may well receice a sanctiuon of up to 26 weeks.
They will ask you for info and then contact your employer before making a decision about the length of the sanction.
Don't delay claiming though because any sanction will strat form the time you claim, even if you leave it 6 months before applying.0 -
Thank you. The only thing worrying me is the money. I only have £50 in my account I'm waiting for my final pay which will only be for two weeks work as they pay monthly. So all together I'll probably have about £300 by the end of the month. I have NO savings or ANYTHING coming in part from the final salary.0
