Joint Claim JSA on Tax Returns?

in Cutting tax
Hi
My partner and I were on Job Seeker's Allowance for a short time last year, and we were claiming as a joint couple - meaning my parner was paid the full JSA for both of us.
I believe the JSA needs to go down on our tax returns - but should it go only on my partner's return, or be split onto both of ours?
Thanks!
