You will not be financially better off by claiming New Style JSA because it’s deducted in full from any UC entitlement.To claim it you will also need to have paid the correct amount of NI contributions in the previous 2 tax years and you also need to be looking for work.1

And JSA is only paid for 6 months. Because there is no financial gain there really isn’t any value on claiming JSA in addition to UC.0
