    Your PIP will not be affected. For your UC.. You have the work allowance, which means you can receive a certain amount of earnings each month before deductions apply.

    If you claim for help with the rent it will be £404/month, if you don’t it will be £673/month. For every £1 of earnings over those amounts your UC will reduce by 55p.

    If you start working you must report the changes by logging into your journal and reporting a change of circumstances. The click work and earnings and report it through there.

    Please be aware also that if the work you do contradicts the reasons why you're claiming LCWRA then it could go against you at your next review.

    Hey @aaalirezaaa, I hope Poppy has helped answer your questions about how affected your benefits will be.

    What sort of work is it if you don't mind me asking?
