Hi,

My Partner is 37 years old. She is on JSA and wants to work part time, there may be a job coming up in my work - though I think she can work up to 15 hours per week before deductions will take place from her benefits.

Regards,

William

That moron who said stop scrounging off the state is probably a foreign ****er so shut your ****ing mouth

You are racist. The poster in question is correct. No able bodied person who lives in our great country should be claiming (aka scrounging) benefits

It's not just you paying in, we are entitled to JSA because our parents paid in you ignorant snob. I would love to see you unemployed, you would soon change your tune.

Yes. Our parents paid in if they were to become unemployed. Not for their little scrounger children to scrounge

How is it scrounging? What are you supposed to do if the bull****-arse companies won't employ you despite a willingness to perform the role? You are clearly a special type of moron.

You clearly aren't making an effort. My family business has hired many school leavers this month alone up and down the land.

Without going back on my job application history since 2007 and knowing my circumstances you are in no position to make that judgement. Do you honestly think I like wasting year after year stuck in my childhood bedroom approaching 30 you dimwit? There are so many obstacles to getting just a basic job these days it is unreal. Have a look at some of my threads for examples of the hoops you have to jump through.

How does it how that I a 16 year old manages 6 McDonalds and yet you scrounge from the government you failure. There is people way younger than you who are leaving school with no qualification and yet are getting jobs.

I'd love for the dole club to withdraw your dole money. That way. It'll force you into work.

I also work less than 16 hours a week (1 shift of 5/6 hrs, sometimes 2 shifts if someone can't do theirs)
I'm also thinking of signing on for Job Seekers (only to help me find full time job. not for the money) but I'm worried that they will reject me because i'm working.

You won't get proper answers here. Find your nearest citizens advice office and ask there. You'll get a professional who knows the stuff and can ask all the questions there. It's totally free, you may just have to wait for a while.

It won't do anything if they reject you and they shouldn't unless you work 16 or more hours and have a lot of savings. Won't hurt to try

People like you are pathetic, you have no idea what it is like constantly looking for work (and if you do then shame on you) not everyone on benefits is lazy, and trying to to get what they can. I have worked for twenty years, and lost my job so get of your high horse, there are a lot of honest people on benefits through no fault of there own

part time

You can work part-time and claim JSA as long as it’s for less than 16 hours a week. You still need to be actively seeking and available for more work, so make sure that you keep signing on and job-hunting if you want to get your JSA.

Any income that you earn over a small amount (£5 a week for a single person, £10 for a couple, up to £20 if you’re disabled, a carer or a lone parent) will be subtracted from your benefit. So if you’re single and earning £30 a week, you’ll have £25 deducted from your benefit.

But while you might not do much better financially from doing a few hours, it looks great on your CV that you’ve kept working, and increases your chances of finding more work.

Idiot.

you will also get your rent paid for you by benefits

Daryl you are a *******. Maybe you should stop ******* over kiddy porn and stop putting people in hardship down. They are after help not your opinions. I would love to slap your teeth out with a club, sorry just stating an opinion. Message me for my address, I can meet you after my 12 hour shift as a doctor.

Slender wankjob clearly doesn't get any action at home. When was the last time you got laid? Ummmm...... never. The fact you are on here debating with strangers clearly state you have too much time to yourself. I'm actually responding as one of the site owners. Get lost, go and die peacefully and have some big black cock rape your ass in front of your mum
