Signing on tomorrow

[Gay_guy1986]

I signed on this morning and my advicer gived me a leaflet about payments been sent early but don't understand when my payments will go in my bank and just wondering if anyone know from this:

 

Expected Issue date Payment for Period Ending

15/03/2013 15/03/2013

27/03/2013 29/03/2013

12/04/2013 12/04/2013

 

I know the top one as I signed on today and it will go in my bank on the 20th (on wednesday)

 

But when will the 27th go in? is it on the 29th it will go in my bank or the 3rd?

 

I should signed on the 29th of March but due to been good friday Jobcentre is shut.

 

Any advice would be great, cheers

There No BACS payments on Bank Holidays anyway,so payments usual go into accounts a day early depending on what benefits you receive

 

http://www.bacs.co.uk/Bacs/Businesses/Resources/Pages/ProcessingCalendar.aspx

 

No BACS payments on 29,30,31 March and 1st April 2013

 

Banks,Post offices,JCP and DWP Shut on Good Friday and Bank Holiday Monday.

It is only the payments that would be due to credit on the Friday or the Monday that will be paid early and should credit on the Maundy Thursday, (unless you declare part time work and then payment won't be issued until form B7 is completed and processed by the Benefit Centre).

[antone]

So wait, you signed today and your payment is thus due on the 20th. That should not be affected by the holiday period, and it's for two weeks. So you wouldn't expect a payment on 27th, right? Your next signing date is 29th, and you'll probably be excused signing that day because the office is closed.

 

So your next payment after the 20th March is due 3rd April and you should receive that as normal. Am I missing some important information here? For example, are you weekly paid?

[flumps1976]

Antone I think the OP means that because they are exused from signing on 29/03/13 the payments will automatically be advanced on 27th to ensure that they are received on the normal payday.

Apologies if I'm incorrect.

Yes, I think you are correct. JSAPS (the JSA payment system, for those following along at home) will issue the payment on 27/3 so it will be received 03/4, three working days later.

[Gay_guy1986]

Well the advicer who signed me on said I will get my payments early then 3.04.2013 but I am confused, I will just have to keep looking at my bank account

[flumps1976]

gay_guy1986 your payment will be issued through the JSAP system early so that it is in your account for your normal payday.

It will be released on 27/03/13 to credit the account on 03/04/13.

I am starting to worry now as My JSA Has not gone in my bank account, it usally goes in by now at this time.

[gloom]

Hi Gay guy

just signed up here to reply to this, mine didnt go in either, wife says its normally in by midnight, i signed on 15th as well and was told not to sign on 29th so my payment was due weds 3rd. Could be a delay due to the clocks going forward maybe? so perhaps the system time is not reset so could be late?

Hi Gloom,

 

Yes I think your right due to the clocks going forward, I will just keep checking my bank

[gloom]

I notice this site system time is wrong also, the posts appear to be made an hour earlier so could easily happen to jsa system too

[antone]

Hi Gloom,

 

Yes I think your right due to the clocks going forward, I will just keep checking my bank

 

Banks can be a bit flakey about this sort of thing - sometimes payments show up at midnight, sometimes at 3am and so on. If you haven't received your money by bank opening time tomorrow, call the Benefit Centre that pays your claim and ask them what's happening.

[Gay_guy1986]

I have just checked my bank and my jsa is showing £129.77

 

was worried then lol

[gloom]

nice one, my wife will check her bank in morning now

[gloom]

Wife has just checked her bank, its in!

Excellent, glad it's worked out OK.

[RaeUK]

Good news, glad people's money is in.

Just to add to the variance of different financial institutions, my building society tends to run their account updates at around 0200hrs ...

If i signed on last wed i should of got paid today but have not will it go in 2 mora ??? With it being a bank hol

[flumps1976]

When you signed on Wednesday last week were you shown the screen on the JSAPs system to show that your signing had been input for 22/05/2013? From memory anyone who signed last Wednesday who did not declare part time work should have had payment advanced automatically (on the Tuesday) so that payment should have credited the account on Friday due to the bank holiday.

Hello everyone,

 

Well just want to let you know that since I last signed on which was (21.06.2013) and its my signing on tomorrow, well I have applied for 29 Jobs.

 

just want your opinions if that is good enough jobseeking since a fortnight ago since I last signed on.

 

Not heard anything back from them yet which is so rude but I don't understand why Jobcentre staff are treating honest people like me and some others thinking they are work shy, I would love a job asap.

[postggj]

500,000 available jobs, most zero / minimum wage contracts

 

2.6 million unemployed

 

lottery ticket ready

[Feebee_71]

Whether applying for 29 jobs is sufficient can only be quantified when compared to your job seekers agreement - if it says 'look on 4 jobs websites, 3 local papers and apply for 5 positions per week' then yes it does fulfil your agreement so long as you've complied with the other parts of the agreement.

I usually have my signature on Job Centre on Wendsdays and have payment on Mondays. So, tomorrow (21/08/2013) I'll have my signature. And because Monday (26/08/2013) will be bank holliday, when will I have my payment?

Thanks
