Jobseekers Ben & Part time work

Hello everyone,

Currently on JSB, I have been offered some work recently for stint of about 6 weeks. My question is, can I come off the dole for those 6 weeks, and then go back on it and claim JSB, or will it be treated as a new claim and have to wait ?

Also, I have been considering desinging websites to pull in some cash, but if I was to do this , surely this violates my JSB and would have to stop claiming, would I be right in saying this? The problem I have with designing sites is it may bring in some cash but it may be very hit and miss , not a guaranteed income.

Anyone possibly advise?

It will be treated as a new claim and you will have to wait. THis happened my brother after only a weeks work - the type of industry he is in that's the way work goes.
