  HI and welcome.

  
  

  I see that you're claiming ESA. Is this a single or joint claim? If it's a joint claim are you the main claimant or is your partner the main one, with you added onto the claim?

  As you are the claimant then you can do permitted work BUT it must be less than 16 hours per week and earn a maximum of £131.50 after deductions and keep all of your existing benefits. You must fill out the PW1 form and get permission from DWP before doing any work.

  
  

  Please also be aware that if the work you do contradicts the reasons why you're claiming ESA then you could be reassessed early and it could go against you once the decision's been made.

  
  

  See link for permitted work.
