Can someone on jsa join partners income support claim

teabag29

If someone is claiming income support as a carer (and having a young baby) and moved their partner in who is on jsa could he sign off jsa and be added to her I.S claim even though he doesn't meet the criteria for I.S as a single person? and would this still apply if he had been sanctioned off jsa until August due to not attending an appointment through illness?

Do you receive Carer's Allowance and claim Income Support as a top up to your CA or do you receive Income Support because you care for your young baby as a single mum?

It's not actually me its my sister but she claims carers and i.s as a top up, she wants to move in with her partner but he has been sanctioned off jsa until august and so is she able to add him on her i.s claim and if not what can they claim as a couple?

Gosh, you do have an unfortunate family, all the moving in and out must be very unsettling for the children.

Yes, he may be added to her IS claim until he finds work. At that time she will need to notify the DWP and her IS entitlement will be reassessed.

unfortunately I was sent to live with my aunt at 3 months old as my mum was an alcoholic, turns out life with my aunt and her 5 children (who ive always grown to no as my bother n sisters due to not finding out otherwise until i was 12) wasnt much better, alcohol n neglect were dominant features of my childhood and consequently my siblings have ended up in a mess, there is only 1 left that I speak to now but she is having a tough time. I had my fair share of problems too when I first left home with domestic violent partner but managed to sort myself out and get a degree and find a decent man just wish she would settle down with someone nice and try and put her past behind her

I am constantly amazed that people do not realise that we can look up their thread history.

The inconsistencies are amazing.

I wish there was an alert button that could be pushed as I seem to spend considerable time trying to help people who for some reason best known to themselves enjoy posting fictitious stories or, being generous, stories mixed between fiction and fact.

The OP has a husband who is a hero in April, a partner moving in 'soon' posted a couple of months later, a boyfriend who cheated on her and she wants no more to do with him, the list of inconsistencies are endless.

erm I dont have to explain myself to you but seen as u are so concerned you could have just asked, my husband and I split up last year for some time, at the time I was indeed very angry with him and didnt think i'd be ever getting back with him. I met someone knew and we were together for 6 mths, things didnt work out and my husband and I ended up reconciling over time with the help of mrriage counselling. Im pleased to say we have gone from strength to strength since and I assure you nothing i have posted is a lie, forgive me that I dont put every detail of my life into every thread i write and therefore must mean all sorts. I don't know whether to be annoyed at the fact you have nothing better to do then play detective or laugh, either way if you have a question for me simply ask, I have nothing to hide and as you will see if you look at my second comment in this thread, the post was not for me i am asking on behalf of my sister. Would you like to know her name and adress seen as I haven't put it on the post just so you can verify? perhaps you would like to know what colour knickers i've got on today too, then again I may have mentioned having a different colour pair on earlier in the year and I wouldnt want you to think there are inconsistencies lmfao.....seriously get a life, I came on here to ask a question not to be judged about my life or what you feel are inconsistencies :rotfl:

To be honest I really cannot be bothered to post all the inconsistencies as it would involve multi quoting.

Perhaps you just forget the difference between husband and partner.

Perhaps you would like to reread your threads. Just click on your user name and then click on statistics (in case you don't know how to do it) and then perhaps you will see what I mean.

It is totally immaterial to me how you live your life and indeed what colour your knickers are.

If you check my history you will see that I am possibly one of the most non judgemental people on this forum.

I apologise if you think I am being unfair in your particular case but the spate of 'trolls' (for want of a better word) in recent days have made me seriously reconsider posting on here at all.

Perhaps you have got the brunt of my annoyance and I apologise for that but I still stick by my original belief that your posts are full of inconsistencies.

Granted I may not always call my husband husband i do sometimes use the word partner but is that not the same thing? I have had another partner in the last year when husband an I separated yes (prob a rebound thing and yes he cheated on me and we separated and I eventually reconciled with husband and we are doing well and have worked through our problems) so perhaps using the word partner confuses the 2 situations and people but i assure you I am not a troll. This thread was for my sister not myself as I highlighted in earlier post
