Hi, I am currently claiming ESA for depression and have been for about 6 months. I have started to feel a lot better recently and think I am ready to start looking for work again. My sick note runs out on the 16th of December and I want to end my ESA claim and start claiming JSA from this date. How do I go about this? Do I phone up jobcentre plus and explain it to them? And how long does it take to switch from ESA to JSA? Am i going to be left with no money coming in for weeks/months?
Oh and also I am only in the assessment phase of my ESA claim. I currently get £71 a week. Not sure if this makes any difference!
Thanks a lot for your help people:)
