Hi, my best friend has just come back from France where she had been living for the last 4yrs as her husband's job needed him to be out there.
They have moved back to the UK and she desperately needs to find a job. Mainly because they can't believe how expensive everything is in the UK and also because she could not work in France as she lived in a small village and could not speak the language well enough.
She wants to go into the Jobcenter and ask about signing on. Can she do this? Even though her husband earns a tidy wage but is quite mean with it?
Is there a cut off point where you CAN'T sign on as your partner should be supporting you?
Sorry, i've never signed on, so have no idea.
Everyone she's met has asked "Why on earth did you come back to the UK, it's a third rate country?"
