    Hey, I'm on job seekers allowance and I have to self isolate for 2 weeks.
    I can't go outside at all to sign on at the post office. Will this effect my payment in any way after two weeks.

    You can fill out a holiday request form online. They will hold the money back for two weeks if you do that.

    Or you can get a friend or relative to pop into the post office and grab you a form. You can nominate somebody to pick it up for you this way

    All post office payments are being held for longer than the norm (up to 90 days), so your money should be there when you're able to go out again.

    All signing at Intreo Offices has been suspended for the moment, so you don't need to go there.
