Pip and JSA was created by Emma Martinez

Hi, I get the standered care from pip. That's all the income I get, I am classed as self employed but not making any money. Every job I have had my disability has gotten in the way.

My mam supports me but that makes me feel like a drain on her. I would of applied for ESA but doctor won't give me sick note and dose not want me on pip.

So I tried to apply for JSA online but won't let me because of universal credits so will ring on Monday.

Any advice with what I can claim?

Many thanks
Emma

Welcome to the forum.

In case you are not aware, your real name appears to be showing in the forum, if you want to change this then follow the instructions in the following FAQ

My full name is showing, how can I stop it?

In broad terms it is ESA or JSA/UC,

Because UC is still being rolled out to many areas, there are restrictions on whether you can make a claim or not, but if you can't claim UC then you should be able to claim JSA instead.

Try putting your details into one of the online benefit calculators this should give you an idea of whether you can claim anything else.
