Employment change effect on benefit claim

0 replies

My partner is employed full time (working from home at the moment). I am considering taking a temporary job. We currently receive WTC and CTC.

If I start work (full time) and then stop again in a few weeks, can I stay on tax credits, or will they force me to claim UC when I stop working?

That would be a disaster for me, as I am disabled in a way that means I cannot meet their job seeking requirements, but nor would they exempt me from them, so I need to stay on tax credits for as long as possible.

I have looked on various advice websites, but can't find advice on this exact situation (i.e. one person already working and the other starting and then stopping).
