Moving into a motorhome and claiming JA

    My parents are giving me a motorhome they can no longer use and I'm thinking of leaving the property I rent and going to live in this vehicle as I am single and can live in it quite adequately as it has cooking facilities and beds etc.

    I am receiving JA and I don't know how this will affect my benefit as I won't have a permanent address, but intend to use the motorhome to travel around the country looking for work.

    Can I use an accommodation address of a friend where I very occasionally stay as my permanent address? Or do I use the motorhome as my address?

    You really need to talk to the dept before doing this.

    I know I should talk to the dept. mp but I have come on here first for an opinion before alerting the dept. to the fact that I am thinking about doing something that might or might not not be allowed.
