postponing my jobseekers benefit

    Ok so,I was made redundant 1 month ago and can't claim JS benefit yet as my redundancy payment was over the limit.
    I have to wait 9 weeks till I claim.

    However I want to go travelling for 9 to 10 weeks at the start of the new year.

    Is it possible to postpone my claim till I get back..?

    Will I get the full 9 months when I start the claim in march/april..?

    Is there any other way around this..?

    I was in employment for 10 years previous.

    Thanks.

    You dont have to make your claim until you get back from travelling and you will get the full 9 months on your return.
