Changes and reviews
A client is obliged to advise MSD of any changes in their circumstances that may affect their entitlement to Jobseeker Support.
MSD may review a benefit at any time to ensure the client still meets the qualifications and is getting the correct rate of payment.
A change in a client's circumstances may also mean that they qualify for another benefit.
