    well you should have known not to hand it in to the WP but if the WP have it then they can give it to the JC and surely you wont get a sanction
  • i hope not.unless its some sort of trick there pulling to sanction me,
    its in the hands of the decision maker.i hope he makes the right decision.

    I have been on it since August and have been told you will not get placed anywhere for a trial unless you have a job at that company first.

    My jobcentre advisor even refused to give me a job log when I asked for a new one and told me everything has to be done through my WP provider.
