    If you apply to SW for holidays in good time then you can go for two weeks.

    Why did you have to wait 3 months to apply for JSA?

    Had you been working here before you applied, or did you apply just after getting here.

    Sounds more like welfare holiday tourist
    You have to satisfy habitual residence to claim welfare, that means you can't be flying back home for a month or so then coming back here to claim welfare and the reason for the 3 months before you can claim welfare.
    You get 2 weeks holiday per year and that's it, unless you are signing off to work for maybe a temporary job you can not just pick and choose when you would like to sign on because you are back in the country
