would the sick note from his gp covered him until january even if his medical with atos states he recieved 0 points and ended 5th nov?

As soon as ATOS said he was fit for work, he was fit for work. He should then have either went and signed on for JSA and look for work. Or raised an appeal. If he raised an appeal, then they may have accepted his fit note would have been valid until January. On appeal you still have to provide fit notes.

if they are back dating the stop date for benefits if you do a late appeal then you need matching sick note from the day they stopped paying benefits

late appeals can be done up to 13 months late and are normaly allowed. fill in gl24 dwp form and ask.

normaly sick notes are no longer valid the day they find you fit for work and stop payment

no thanks dont need money saving ideas, me n my partner also smoke so bakki a week comes in at around £30 a week (i know what ill probably get now give up you'll save yourself a fortune) well sorry i have smoked for 14 years and my partner even longer!! i must point out that both my kids are still in nappies which still costs a fortune. yes we knew it would stop and have to claim jsa, but no we didnt realize that they would say jsa would be overpaid since nov, why would we we got told esa would run until januray?? i think u lot are dillusonal if u think 4 people can live independtly in there own place pay for all the bills, and buy food for a whole week on £140, the child tax credit and child benefit is meant to feed and clothe my children for a week not feed us as well, oh also forgot my childs £4 lunch money x2 a week at nursery which the goverment dont fund either because its a nursery place not at school.

Why don't you both stop smoking, the £30 a week will buy nappies and so extra food. Other parents make sacrifices, why cant you ?
