Help please re IS/JSA

spliced

I am leaving the family home wand moving to a different city with the childfren due to numerous issues.

I will need to claim IS untill I can find out if my 3 year old can get into nursery etc and then my intention is to find a job.

I curently work 21 hours a week and there dad has them for the days I work, but moving away means I will be resigning and I have read on the internet that cos I have made myself jobless, then I will not be entitled to IS.

If i cant get IS then I cannot afford to live before I find a job. I am soo stressed out about this and need advice please. I am not good at all with talking to people either over the phone or face to face.

Thanks in advance

You can claim IS regardless whether you have quit your job or not, you will not get sanctioned so don't worry

If you was only entitled to JSA then you could get sanctioned, but IS does not require you to look for job, so there is no sanction put in place, hth.
