ESA support group and studying.

Ragerroo02

Hello, I'm in the ESA support group and have been for a few months now. I've been thinking about going to university in order to gain qualifications for a new career that will adapt to my limitations.

Do I have to fill a Work permit form while doing less than 6 hours a week physically in university and the rest distance learning with disabled student allowances in place?

Hi @Ragerroo02, and welcome 😊 You've mentioned 6 hours in University but also hours via distance learning. It would depend on your total hours learning per week as to whether this is classed as part or full time, and the impact it will have on your benefits.
