1 week holiday on JSA..Help?

Hi everyone i'm currently on JSA Income based allowance..my mother has bought me a surprise holiday for my birthday..but because i have to sign on every week as i'm under 24..I wanted to know what my rights are? Do I have to sign off and on again..or is there some sort of way I can still claim or not?

    It might help to identify where the holiday will be (location) ;)

    Yes - it makes a difference if the holiday is in the UK or abroad.

    Hey guys..my best mate has bought me a trip to Ibiza for my birthday. We go on august 4th and to be honest i hardly ever go abroad and i'm so lost by the comparison sites and guides. I've done a bit of reading on here and see different people stand behind different cards.

    I'm no geographer, but last time I checked Ibiza was not in Wales! :p

    Tell the jobcentre - you are allowed a holiday in the UK for up to 14 days.
