coming off mat allowance

[FierceAngel]

my mat allowance ends in 10 weeks and it was my intention to go back to work partime 2-3 days a week...

i was a temp wen i went on mat leave so have no job to return to..

im getting concerned tht i wont be able to get a job quickly.. does anyone know if i will be allowed to claim jsa while i look?

i know i wont get income based as oh is working but not sure how contribution based works?

i have worked since i was 16 stopped working in oct was on IB for about 5 weeks after threatned misscarriage..

then worked november to jan and went on mat allowance 2nd week in jan...

i have worked about 20 hours recently (was working in a pub but had to give it up because of myt back)

im due to see a specialist about my back (nerve damage from my epidural) but was hoping if i did office work i would be ok..

but if it doesnt get better is IB another option?
