JSA Sanction Question

Hello,

I have had my sanction 'overturned' yesterday (friday) at around 4pm. The woman i was speaking to did not mention if i would get paid or not.

My question is will i get paid what they failed to pay me? I have only missed one payment and if so how long will it take for it to be put in my account?

Thankyou.

Please get back to me ASAP.

    If your sanction has been overturned then your next JSA payment will include your back pay as it is a recognition that you had good cause for whatever the sanction was for.

    If this causes difficulty then a trip to CAB who could make a call on your behalf may result in a more immediate repayment.

    Or just telephone them yourself and ask for an immediate payment as it is causing you hardship.
