Hi I'm just wondering what the process is going from Jobseekers Allowance to Disability Allowance? I haven't applied yet but when I do will they stop my JSA while waiting for approval and will I be left with no money or do I keep the JSA until they make a decision?
Thanks
 
Are you eligible and available for work? If you are not, then you cannot claim Jobseekers payments. You may be eligible for Supplementary Welfare Allowance (SWA) while waiting on a decision on your Disability Allowance claim. SWA is a means-tested payment.

Ask at the office where you sign on where the local SWA office is located.
