Very low income self employed - benefits?

Legacy_user

Work few hours per week self employed, earn around £2k per year, not a student, living with parents. Not really looking for an employed job. Start university next year.

I don't feel good asking this but can I get any benefits? I would be surprised if yes.

What type of benefits and for what reason? If you WERE interested and actively seeking employment, you would get JSA - but nothing else springs to mind!

Is income support a benefit?

You are not eligible for IS.

AnxiousMum

Yes, but on what grounds do you think you would qualify for that? Honestly - if you are tutoring, and charging a realistic rate, you would be earning way too much to get any means tested benefits anyway.
