    Is your house/flat the right size? You haven't got 3 bedrooms just for one person?

    Darlyd post is slighty incorrect you get WTC on 16 hours per week if you are a) a parent, or b) disabled. If neither a or b apply you need to work 30 hours per week.

    Oops.... AM sorry OP for bad advice.

    Hope you sort it out.. Good luck :D
  • @DX2: I share a 4 bedroom house with 2 other tenants. my rent £232 a month excluding council tax.
    I'm neither a nor b so I need another job or to win the lotto!
