    I've not yet received my first payment since switching from JSA as there were some application forms etc that went awry but I've notified them of change of address etc and will likely have a meeting with them soon.

    Thanks guys.

    JSA if Income Related will have the same issues.

    Indeed. I switched when I got injured and moved in to here 2 weeks after being injured.

    Hi
    You need to approach your local council as homeless and explain the situation and that youve been asked to leave and they may be able to refer you to a hostel etc that you will be able to claim for. .

    What a selfish girlfriend. Dump her and find someone who won't make you homeless if you have an accident or become unemployed. What a horrible cow.
    These are my own views and you should seek advice from your local Benefits Department or CAB.
