Esa and job offer: 25 hours a week

mikkibell

Hi my daughter has been offered a job but it's 25 hours a week. Will here esa be stopped fully. She is in the support group. Would she be able to claim anything else? 

Thanks

Hi mikkibell welcome to the Scope community.  To be honest,  I think it would stop because if her hours are more than 16 hours a week it starts effecting ESA. She can clame working tax credit though.

Hi @mikkibell and a warm welcome to the community! You can only work up to 16 hours a week while on ESA. However, if you use the benefit calculator it may indicate that your daughter is eligible for another form of support. Hope this helps
