UC and My daughter working part time whilst a student

Hi how many hours can my 18 year old daughter work (who's a part time college student) before it affects my UC? I also claim full housing and council tax benefit. Thanks

By housing benefit, do you mean the housing element of Universal Credit @rachelh72? Or do you receive housing benefit separate to your UC?
Your daughters' earnings will not impact your UC award. Do you still receive the child element for her?

If your daughter is only a part time student, I wouldn't expect your child element to continue for her. It would only continue if she's in full time non advanced education. See link.
Your daughter can work as many hours as she wants, it will not affect your UC.
