No. he would still have to wait nine weeks because its voluntary.
If you are 55 years or over there is no disqualification from receiving JB irrespective of the amount of the redundancy payment.
Only if redundancy payment was over 50k is the way I read it, also if over age 55 then there is no disqualification regardless of how much redundancy you got.
Volunteering for redundancy would seem to me to be leaving work voluntarily?
Will the OP's partner be actually seeking work if the plan is to emmigrate more or less immediately?
I take your point all right but:-
On the redundancy isssue the Operational Guideslines don't differentate between Voluntary or Compulsory redundance only on the age and redundancy amounts.QUOTE]
So are you saying that the OP husband can claim JSB even if he takes voluntary redundancy and its more the amount of the redundancy that dictates the duration of time you can apply for. Say for example the voluntary redundancy is under 10k , do you still have to wait 9 weeks to apply for JSB?

Any sum under 50k will not incur a disqualification period.
