I am claiming Jsa and i signed on 18th dec and got my jsa on the 21st.

I was due to sign on the 1st but have been excused and my next signing on is the 15th jan.

As i have been excused on the 1st will i get a payment usual on the 4th?


I did recieve a payment sheet but the dates were left blank.

Thank you.

    They'll assume you would sign as usual and pay as usual. It will likely be processed early.

    You should get your money on the 4th as if you had signed.

    Yes, I have had similar but it was due to jobcentre staff being on strike the day I was due to sign, I received the money on the day I normally would...

    Why, the 4th isn't a holiday.

    But the payment needs to be processed three days before, and the 1st is a bank holiday. Check the govt website if you are unsure - the information is on there!

    So I would guess the payment might come on the 3rd if it is processed on the 31st...
