Hi

I currently work part-time (hours vary from week to week), so I claim Job seekers benefit for days not worked.
Today I received a form from the social welfare, asking about what efforts I have been making to get employment, dates etc.. Because my hours are different every week it's hard to get another part-time job, so i have been applying for full-time positions (to be honest I havent applied for a few weeks now). Is this normal practice for SW to send these forms out or is it an indication that they could be considering stopping my SW?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Yes.

They are checking if you are genuinely available for and seeking work which is one of the key qualification conditions for Jobseekers Benefit or Jobseekers Allowance.
