    I get really bad head aches and migraines and I keep fainting when ever I get an attack my adviser was the one who told me to go on it. I am waiting to see a neorosurgion to see how they can help. I just need to make sure I am not going to be left with no income while they processe my claim So i am unsure what to ask them when I ring up. I have all ready closed my JSA.

    If you have no other household income, you should apply for a short term benefit advance. If you call the number on any of the JSA letters they will be able to put you through to the right team.

    If you receive an ESA50 form, asking about your medical condition, you would be best to seek advice before completing it. CAB or Welfare Rights will be able to help.
  • I have all ready sent my doctors not off so will I not recieve ESA from 13weeks I just dont understand properly sorry.
