I am trying to sign up for Jobseeker’s Allowance as I unfortunately cannot qualify for Benefit or for the covid emergency package.
I do not have a public services card (PSC). Online it is a requirement to sign on for the allowance to have your identify verified by getting a PSC, which requires an appointment itself to apply for. Of course the government have suspended these appointments due to covid.
Does this mean you can’t get a PSC and can’t apply for the allowance? How would I go about this? Any help would be great, thank you.
