Hi Guys I am Thinking of becoming a self employed taxi driver. I have been on JSA for nearly six months and have to do something to keep my sanity.
The question is as a newly self employed person would I be able to claim WTC I am single with no kids or dependants,in rented accom and little savings. The Gov website is a bit vague, can any of you help please.

The income amount before entitlement does not exist is lower than £17K for a single person with no dependent children. I am not sure of the figure but I am sure it is lower than £12K per year.For WTC you need to be over 25 and working 30hours plus per week and earning no more than 17k per year0 -
