Your entitled to income support, but it'll take more than a week to claim it.

Unless you where born in another country :-(

 

[villa_tom]

Well done mate.

How long where you self employed for?

 

[PlumbBobBob]

since 2009, it has been getting busier year on year but still not really enough so i decided when this came up to go for it.

Well done Steve. It's getting harder for all of us to make a decent living doing this stuff. Good luck.

Colin if your class 2's are up to date you should be claiming ESA. You are entitled to it so take it.

Congrats mate.
