Can I work on LCWRA ???

Hi, im 19, I like in a council flat, and I claim universal credit including housing element, my assessment for lcwra is next week. 
If I am accepted, will I be able to work 8 hours a week, £56 pound wage, without anything being affected? Tia

If you are found to have LCW or LCWRA the first £344 of any wages will be ignored each month.

Welcome to the community @missyvixen How are you doing today? 

I hope that calcotti's reply has cleared that up for you. Does that make sense now? 

I hope your assessment goes well. Please do let us know how you get on!
