Jobseekers Benefit - Waiting times...???

NearlyForty · 2019-07-08 10:00:44

Hi all, Would anyone know what are the jobseekers benefit waiting times now..? I know there used to be long waiting times before, is it still the same? This is my first time being unemployed in over 20 years, so I haven’t a clue

Assuming your ex-employer files the your last date of employment online without delay, it shouldn't take more than a fortnight.

I was out of work on the 18th of June. Got my last paycheck on on the 28th. Got my first payment on the 12th August.
