in Employment and Support Allowance (ESA)
Hi
I have SPD, hip dysplasia and other things wrong and in constant pain which to the most point is handled well.  I have started working bank part time hours as I'm going stir crazy.  I was advised as it was term time and bank hours the pay would he averaged out over the year......I worked out I've been earning just about what I'mowed. However they are now trying to say I owe them 500.....what's the legal limit etc

    Hi,

    If you're claiming ESA then permitted work must be less than 16 hours per week and earning no more than £125.50 per week. See link for full details.

    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
