Hi I thought I would ask here first before I telephone the job centre.
I was a SAHM for many years. My children are now at school and therefore I decided to get a part-time job. Did this for a year with the same company. Went on a summer holiday, came back to find that they had employed someone else and are keeping that person on at minimum hours and me.
I am not on a contract. Seems to be flexible hours. I asked for at least 10 hours a week to keep me going, they agreed. Now for the last two weeks the hours have been barely 6 hours a week.
My husband has a fulltime job, apparently well paid ??? If I have paid enough stamp from last year. Am I entitled to ask for income job seekers allowance? or can I not claim because I have a husband and family. I claim no other benefits apart from child benefit. I want to work extra hours and need the extra hours for the household bills (as we are starting to struggle)
Has anyone else been in the same position ?
