Hello

I would like to find some part time paid work, maybe a day a week, but do not want my UC and Lwcra benefit income effected. Is this possible?

Thank you

    Hi,

    As long as you earn less than the £411 work allowance each month, your UC payments won't change.

    The only concern is whether the job you do contradicts the reason that you got awarded LCWRA.

    (*Work allowance is £684 a month if you don't get Housing Costs with UC.)
