moving home & claiming JSA

    I'm hoping someone can help me figure out what I'm entitled to in relation to JSA. My contract is finishing up at the end of Oct and I'll be moving home to my parents house to save money and try and get a job there. I'm 25 and the eldest so my parents still have several dependant kids. Can anyone advise as to whether I'd be entitled to the full amount of JSA or is there some sort of means test if I'm living with my parents (regardless of their situation)? Any guidance would be much appreciated.

    I was in a simliar situation. Since you're over 25 your income, and not your parent's, is what they'll check when you are means tested. And you should then be entitled to the full amount.

    Thanks for that. That's what I was hoping.
