Hi there,

I was place into the work related group for ESA, I had five meeting with a different person after this suposedly to help me back into work, when I phoned to make another appointment with someone they told me as I had done my 5 sessions I did not need to attend anymore. However I now feel ready to go back to work and have started applying for jobs, my question being............ do I need to stop claiming ESA or contact them to let them know and secondly I cannot afford for my money to just stop, can I claim Job seekers if I am looking for work. Just to add my husband has just been made redundant and is now claiming JSA.

thanks in advance for any help

If you now feel that you are fit for work you need to claim JSA.
