Private Fuel Deduction and UC

Martin2019

Hi

in My new job I have a company car with a fuel car. I log my daily and personal miles and use the company fuel card. In my wages every month I then have a private fuel deduction line.

however my take home pay on UC includes the deduction . For example

take home pay on payslip £2100

Private fuel deduction £100

Uc use £2200 as the take home so I end up paying £100 private fuel but then uc take the 55p etc

hope that makes sense !?

This isn't something I've come across before @Martin2019. I'd recommend contacting UC directly to explain that the £100 is deducted from the take home pay amount. Does it show on your payslip as a deduction, like National Insurance and tax? If it doesn't, that might be why they don't recognise it.
