II earned from my job approx 700 pound this month resulting in me not getting anything from universal credit 0.00 I thought there was a platform where u were allowed to earn so much before deductions .is it worth working?????

The first £404 is ignored.then anything over this reduces your universal credit by 55 pence on every pound over the £404

The work allowance only applies if someone on the claim has LCW/LCWRA or a dependent child.
