Hi all,
I have been on the jobseeker benefit for 2mths, now i have been offered temp position for 3 wks but there is no chance for a permanent position.
My question is: will I be able to go back onto jobseeker benefit after 3 wks?
thx
 
Hi Mukaa,

Yes you will be allowed to go back onto job seekers alowance after three weeks (once you are still looking for work), however most cases you will have to wait weeks again until you get paid, but the payment will be backdated as usual.
