can you sign off for longer than 2weeks holiday?

You can receive your Jobseeker's Benefit or Jobseeker's Allowance payment for 2 weeks holidays (i.e. 12 days excluding Sundays) in any calendar year. These holidays may be taken abroad. You are required to inform the Local Social Welfare Office 2 weeks in advance of your departure and you must complete the UP30 form. All holiday payments will be made retrospectively, upon confirmation of the position when they sign on again (on the next normal signing day after his/her return). If you take holidays for more than 2 weeks, you will only be paid in respect of the first two weeks of your holiday, you will not be paid for any other additional period you are on holiday.
