Voluntary Work- informing DWP and forms
Thu 04-Mar-10 01:04 PM

Hello,

I'm getting a bit confused about this. I was under the impression that there was no DUTY to inform the DWP/JC+ if someone was doing voluntary work, only if there is a change in circumstances that could affect benefit entitlement but that it is always a good idea to let them know anyway.

However someone has contacted us for advice and has been told about a particular form they have to fill in if they want to do voluntary work. I then found some information on Volunteering England's website about 'Volunteering & State Benefits' and they say that someone should always inform DWP/JC+ and there is a form: ES672VJP to do so.

But I can't find this form anywhere on-line. Have other people heard of this? Has anyone seen this form? Or have a copy I could have a look at?

Thanks
