answer text <p>The day of the week on which claimants are asked to sign on is typically fixed during a claimant’s new jobseeker interview.<strong></strong>However, this may be varied because of the personal circumstances of the claimant or for operational reasons. This policy ensures that claimants are able to manage their lives and take advantage of work-related opportunities whilst remaining close to Jobcentre Plus support. Whatever signing day is agreed, be it linked to the NINO or otherwise, entitlement is not affected as this will still be tied to the date of claim.</p> more like this
