    No problem. Your thoughts are not correct. Assessment period is 13 weeks. This means that you receive the extra money from the 14th week of your claim and you will continue to receive the Support Group rate for as long as you remain in that group. 17 weeks @ £38.55 = £655.35. After that backdated money you'll then receive £111.65 per week, which is £223.30 every fortnight for as long as you remain in the Support Group.

    The Christmas bonus is and extra one off £10 payment, which you will receive.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
