Benefit query. Fluctuating salary.

Me and my dh get tax credits because he is a low earner and I'm a student. We have 2 kids, one with sen.

I've just qualified as a primary school teacher after doing my pgce this year. I haven't got a permanent post yet so I might be doing supply in September. My salary will obviously fluctuate depending on how much supply work I get.

How do I ensure I get the right amount of benefits when my salary will be different week to week?

I would suggest changing to UC. They take the figure each month. Then no chance of any over or underpayment
