    Hi Folks

    I wonder if somebody could help me with a bit of advice

    Ive been unemployed and receiving Jobseekers Allowance since September 2015. After just finishing a Springboard course a couple of months ago, I'm now looking to go on a CE scheme. Now I know that the Springboard course is fine and that this wont exclude me from the CE scheme.

    My problem is this I worked for 4 days in September just gone (was let go), and I think that these four days now make me ineligible for a CE scheme. Could anybody clarify this for me. Surely four days work in a year and a half cant rule me out. I really want to try to get back to work in some shape or form...

    I would think that a longer time period must pass between signing off and back on again to be treated as a new claim.
    As you say, 4 days is very little. Best to ask them in your local welfare office. Hope it all works out :)
