liam650 · 2017-09-30 11:21:37

So I have gotten a job offer and accepted it but I start on the 16th October, 2 weeks from now. I am on JSA, now how does it work do i still get my JSA payment for the next 2 weeks while I wait to start the job? also I do a few weeks training for the job starting the 16th, does that count as actual work, can i claim JSA…

Your employer, not the taxpayer, should be paying you for the training. So ask your employer if you will be on the payroll from October 16th.
