    Hi,

    I pulled the plug on a failing business in 2013. I was then looking after a sick relative but not claiming carers allowance or anything.

    I should have claimed earlier but my head was all over the place between the business failure, looking after someone and I had a good bit of money put aside.

    Since january I've being applying for a lot of jobs but getting nowhere.

    Will I still get JSA despite the late claim. I had being paying tax up until late 2013.

    With evidence of those jobs you applied for (rejection letters, email printouts etc.). Genuinely Seeking Work goes a long way in a backdating decision.

    A claim can only be backdated 6 months.
