Hi guys i need a bit of help. I get pip and the disability element of working tax credits and i work 33 hrs a week. Can you tell me if my disability element of working tax credits will change if my wages (not hours) go up or is it not effected. I cannot find any info on this just normal working tax credits. im just curious what happens if i got a pay rise at work.
Thank you
Thank you

Tax credits are based on the previous years earnings unless there's a £2,500 difference. https://www.entitledto.co.uk/help/how-tax-credits-workYou can also use a benefits calculator and put in different figures to see what it comes up with. https://www.entitledto.co.uk/benefits-calculator

Hello and welcome @warnawoo Great username! How are you doing today?
I hope Poppy's advice has helped clear things up for you. It's definitely worth using the benefits calculator to see how a wage rise would impact your disability element. I'm hoping you would still be better off overall
Please let us know if we can help in any other way. Take care and have a fab Thursday.0
