    Hi there @Andi66 and welcome to the community.  I totally understand your concern over the recent statement, but so far all we know is they're talking about Universal credit, so please try not to worry!  But we're all here to support each other if needed. :)

    There are a lot of work from home jobs that have nothing to do with IT, many office jobs are work from home now.   I'm also autistic with mobility issues, so I understand the struggle, I really do.  

    The problem is many places are advertising positions as work from home, but they still ask you to go into the office twice a week. So it's a bit cheeky.
