Check-in interview, what to expect?

Jobseeker’s Allowance

Hey everyone,

Had my first interview for jobseekers on 15/01/26, got asked the basic questions of how far are you willing to travel, what are you looking for, what sites are you using etc. Got asked my national insurance number and then got told it was all done!

Very confused since people on here all talking about work commitments which I was never asked about, I now have a interview to "check in on how its going" tommorow (28/01/26) and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to bring (same 3 forms of ID as first interview?) or even when my first payment is supposed to come.

Sorry if this is rambling or formatted poorly, just overall very confused
