    in the OP you said you earnt £364 per month.
    is that 4 weekly or calandar month?


    either way that is above the JSA amount so you will have to pay some

    how does that work out to £59 a week?
  • On average I earn £364 per calander month but my salary changes every month, some months I earn £420, but my basic is £299 per calander month.
