. . . . Job Seekers Allowance And Relocating????

Hey Peeps, I have been claiming Job Seekers Allowance now since sometime in April and I have got an interview thingy tomorrow morning that I have got to go to every four weeks now. - :-(

My question is that I have been offered somewhere to live that is nowhere near where it is that I am living now, I would be moving from Lancashire in the north west of england to Newcastle-upon-Tyne which as i am sure that you all know is in the north-east of england.

My question therefore is perhaps whether i can go ahead and move the at the end of this week/or/at the start of next week, And still continue to get my Job Seekers Allowance payments? Can I have it changed so that I can sign on at a local jobcentre Plus in Newcastle, As Opposed to where i made my first original claim in the Morecambe Area? And how would I go about having this changed?

Any Help/Or/Advice on this matter would be very gratefully received,

Thanks You.
