Is the £635 per month before or after tax and national insurance?
Mostly after tax, I don't pay NI on any of the jobs individually, though I do pay around £12 a month self employed rate. I also pay a small amount of tax at the end of the year for freelance work, likely to be less than £100 this year. thanks0 -
you would need to also take into account your LHA rate for a one bedroom place for your area (which may be different from the rent you pay but it the figure they will use)
