    I applied for jobseekers allowance last wednesday and provided the relevant documentation on friday morning. I know it's only wednesday but i've received no post or phonecalls regarding an interview for means testing. I know there is probably a massive backlog but does anyone have any idea of waiting times to be called?

    I applied in early Feb and still have heard nothing - it's a long wait. If you're struggling for cash though you can go to your local welfare office who have visibility for your claim and can provide interim payments.

    I was thinking about that but considering i've not been to see anyone about means test/my claim outside of just submitting the application and documents needed i didnt think i'd be eligable.

    thanks god it's gonna be a long wait by the sounds of things :(
