The Person Concerned failed to collect payments issued on the 7th, 14th and 21st of November 2023. All Jobseekers Claims automatically suspend once expired payment register on our payment system. As the Person Concerned did not make contact with the Department following these expired payments their Jobseekers claim automatically closed in November 2023.
The Person Concerned reapplied for Jobseekers on the 19/12/2023 and a decision to disallow this application was issued on the 12/01/2024. The Person Concerned was disallowed for two reasons, firstly they indicated on their Jobseekers application that they are unavailable for full time work and secondly they are attending a full time course of study.
An appeal application form has issued to the person concerned should they wish to appeal the decision.
