As you left your job voluntarily you will be sanctioned, up to 26 weeks (ie no payments, they will write to you and your ex-employer to ask why you quit).
Apply as soon as possible as sanctions count from time of application rather than award.

You can't be sanctioned0

If you sign on and are actively seeking work after 26 weeks out of work, you won't be sanctioned, nor will they contact your last employer.0
