    Check with DSP. Realistically they are the ones to give you something definitive. The BTEA operational guidelines allow you to work or sign on for the summer period without affecting your BTEA for the next year of your course. That would seem to indicate that you can do your J1 without affecting your payment for next year. But its DSP who can give you the full story.

    You can contact the BTEA head office here:
