    Well I go on holiday 5 times a year abroad while claiming JSA. 1 week x 5 times doesnt affect my sign on in between. It your holiday rights!

    You have no right to a holiday whilst on JSA.

    Could I suggest that anybody needing help on holidays whilst claiming benefits starts a new thread? This one is very jumbled!

    It's also 6 years old.

    No, you're not, unless you are an employee.

    Yep, this is why threads should get locked after so long - this one has been restarted so many times!

    I don't think flight747 knows the meaning of employment. ;)

    For some, it certainly seems that way.

    If ESA & IS allow abroad holiday, then why not....JSA will do the same too! No buts!

    You have missed the fact that you are no longer on IS. JSA gives no overseas holiday entitlement.

    You clearly have no intention of getting a job. Do you think this is a good example to set to your child?
