    Hello :)!

    Nice to e meet you and thank you for your message and warm welcome - I am trying to understand how UC works. I work a part time and after tax and pension I receive 1251, I pay 1000 in rent and then train. Which means i dont have much left over. I want to apply for UC but whenever I calculate my possible help, it says something around 150.. any idea if I could actually qualify for it? - thank you

    You could talk to a local welfare rights organisation, or the Scope helpline, who can assist you in running a benefits calculation to see if your results were correct.
