  • Job Seeker’s Allowance (income based):  This is means-tested  - and affected by your financial position (E.g. any savings, partner’s salary).

Current JSA allowance:  £57-45 (25 and over), £45-50 (18-24)

JOINT COVER FOR INCOME PROTECTION INSURANCE POLICIES
We do not provide joint cover as premiums are calculated according to an individual’s income, age and cover selection.
Each of you can cover up to 50% of your gross monthly income up to a maximum of £1,000.

Our unique choice of 3, 6 or 12 months benefit periods and different cover options provide flexibility for each of you to choose the cover you need. For example one of you could select ASU with 12 months maximum benefit period, while the other could select Unemployment only with 3 months maximum benefit period.

    • Each of you will need to complete an individual Application Form and Direct Debit
    • Each of you are insured in your own right and assigned individual policies
    • Premiums are paid separately by Direct Debit.
