JOB SEEKERS TO ESA?? was created by ava256
Hi,
Does anyone know if you can claim ESA when you have previously claimed Jobseekers. I am so stressed at the moment over having to move and find a new rented home for my older still at home boys that I just can't face the paperwork, cannot make head or tail of all the info, don't want to put my son through an interview at the moment, but essential we have some money coming in. So the simplest option seems just to go for Jobseekers until we have moved and stress levels are manageable.
Any ideas if that is allowed?
Many thanks
Annette

There is nothing stopping you making a claim for ESA providing that your GP is prepared to issue a Fit Note.
