Hi all,

I am applying for jobs and have come across a couple of part times roles at minimum.wage.

I am on uc at the minute and don't know how the rules work regarding part time work.

I did research and came across a few sites explaining it but they all seem outdated.

Will I get a work allowance I think because I have a small child. Then tax free allowance but then it all seems confusing from there.

I pay about £600 rent a month which UC cover at the minute. I have 1 child a 3 year old.

Yes your work allowance will be about £404 (atm as it raising slightly in April)

Then it'll be 55p in every £ knocked off.
