Change of claimant’s address5

1

These Regulations cease to apply to a claimant from the date on which the claimant changes address if, as a consequence of changing address, the claimant is notified under regulation 23 (attendance) or 23A (attendance by members of a joint-clam couple) of the Jobseeker’s Allowance Regulations that the claimant should attend at an office of the Department for Work and Pensions which is not an appropriate office for the purposes of these Regulations.

2

However, in a case where these Regulations cease to apply to a claimant from a particular date by virtue of paragraph (1), any relevant determination made before that date in relation to that person shall continue to have effect.

3

In paragraph (2), “relevant determination” means a determination that—

a

the claimant’s jobseeker’s allowance is not payable by virtue of section 19 (circumstances in which a jobseeker’s allowance is not payable) of the Jobseekers Act 1995, or

b

the claimant is subject to a sanction under section 20A (denial or reduction in joint-claim jobseeker’s allowance) of the Jobseekers Act 1995.
