You can model this scenario on the Entitled To (turn 2 us) website which has a benefits calculator.

Have a go and copy the results over to here. We'll tell you if they look right or not. Just do the calculation, don't worry about the surrounding information, you won't need that to work out the figures.

Remember you are going to need to be able to follow processes at work. This is good practice for you. Take your time, if it is too much take a break and go back to it.

to give you an idea my son is also on HRC DLA /LRM and works at a little job for our council - he earns £102 per week working 30+ hours on an apprenticeship scheme
he is entitled to £122.36 WTC per week according to HMRC
of course what you are entitled to depends on how much you earn - but hopefully this will give you some idea of amounts - do note that you will receive less than this if you only work 16 hours per week

Entitlementper yearper weeknotesMeans-tested income entitlementsTax Credits-Initial Tax Credit£5,591.80£107.24 Tax Credits£5,591.80£107.24Working tax credit Means-tested bill reductionsHousing Benefit£470.88£9.03Your full rent of £62.00 per week will be reduced by £9.03 per week because of your entitlement to Housing Benefit. This means you will have to pay £52.97 each week. Our calculation is based on you receiving £107.24 from working tax credit. Total Entitlements£6,062.68£116.27 weekly

says nothing about the dla i get or if i would get any income support still of council tax and is the rent thing above correct ????

could someone brake this down i dont no if this is write or what

It says nothing about dla because you already get that. It mentions benefits you might be entitled to.
