Hello.

Need a bit of advice, (I have anxiety so worry over silly things.)

2 weeks ago my other half moved back in with me, so I put a claim online for JSA. Neither of us work. (sadly he lost his job in October.)
Anyway I was told they had started to process the claim 5 days ago, as I phoned to ask why they hadn't asked me to go to the job centre to sign forms. So made a appointment for tomorrow.
Now a missed call yesterday and one today off them, so I call them and they are saying I need to fill in a JSA1 Form tomorrow.

Isn't that what I did online? I know it was for claiming Joint JSA. I'm really scared incase they are planning to sneakily not pay me. I have no money at all, apart from child benefit every 4 weeks. Getting very worried as I have prioprity debts with debt companies to pay and if I don't pay I get to deal with *lovely* baliffs yet again. :(

Please tell me I'm worrying over nothing. :(
