Good evening everybody,
I have just registered with this forum and hope to find answer to my questions.
I moved to London just around three weeks ago. I am intensively looking for a job at the moment but for the meantime I have applied for jobseeker's allowance.
As soon as I have got the writing confirmation from jobcenter I will have to claim housing benefit. I want do claim housebenefit backdated, is it possible?
What about education voucher? In Germany, the country I come from, if you are registered as jobseeker you can apply for a so called "Bildungsgutschein" wich cover the costs for you to attend a qualification course.
I would like to attend a Spanish language course, for I thinkt this would enhanche the chance of finding a job considering that I am a teacher for German and so I could also teach Spanish.
By the way, is there something like that - an educati voucher - and if yes, how is the procedure to apply?
Many thanks in advance
