JSA sanctioned, how long to reclaim if i win appeal

money_unexpert

I had my JSA sanctioned for 2 weeks for not turning up to job center course(twice) but i should have some grounds for appeal. I have doctors note and was living in temp accommodation at time so all over the place, one other reason as well.

If i do appeal how long would it take to reclaim this two weeks sanctioned money as i have nothing for next two weeks?

I've a feeling the appeal will fail anyway no matter what i present as that's just the way they work, but i feel a do have a genuine case, will try anyway.

Any ideas.

Apply for a crisis loan and you should get it within a few days if you really have no money and no access to credit.

If you need some further help then visit CAB and appeal with their help.

Thanks, is this "Crisis loan" the same as a hardship payment, both or which i have heard about, are they the same thing?

Unless the OP is vulnerable they will not qualify for a CL/ HP for the first two weeks of the sanction.

OP, if you were not fit for work you should have claimed ESA.
