    It's not just your mum, my MIL thinks if you leave a job, for whatever reason, you have to wait 8 weeks :confused: I've told her again and again you don't but what do I know eh? :rolleyes:

    Also my other half waiting 6 week before signing on, thinking he'd get nothing, so when he signed on he was fine unlike me lol

    I had in my head it was 26 weeks but I think that's something else!
    Tricky as although I'm making myself unemployed there is a good reason!

    I heard if you do get sanctioned for 28 weeks you can apply for hardship funds at a reduced rate from JSA.
