Entitlements when working part-time

Hello,
I have an interview next wk for a job working 16 1/2 hours per week. I know its not many hours but i have been unwell for past yr and want to ease myself back into employment.
I'm just wondering what benefits i will be entitled to if i only work 16 1/2 hours?
Both my partner and i claim JSA, Housing benefit and I get DLA.
Thanks in advance!

you may be able to get working tax credits as you will be working more than 16 hours http://www.adviceguide.org.uk/b_working_tax_credit.pdf
Does your partner claim Contribution based or income based JSA as if income based this will likely stop
You may still be entitled to some housing help
try puting your details into the turn2us site and it should give you a rough idea0
