Moving off Income Support (Carers based)

$

0
It's possible I may be moving off carer's allowance in the near future, I know I will have 8 weeks to get my affairs in order but am unsure as to what will then happen.

Several years ago I became a carer for my severely disabled father. A few years later my husband left his job in order to care for our then 3 year old boy. We have since gained another child, they are now 2 and 6 years old.

I qualified for income support due to being a carer. We are on a joint claim.

When the time comes I guess we will be moved onto JSA, but how does this work.. will it be just me or both of us who are moved onto JSA. Given a choice I'd prefer to be the one to work as my husband has taken over the role of caring for our kids and home.
