Part Time Job

Hi Everyone
My daughter has the chance to work one night a week in the local pub.
She will be paid through the books,how will it affect her boyfriends WTC ?.
Will their payment be reduced by the same amount as what she earns which
will be about £25.00 per week.
I am guessing they get Wtc,He is on a low wage and she does not work as
they have a 3 month baby girl.They live in private rented accomodation and
get no help towards paying that.
I hope there is enough info here .

Thanks

If their joint income is below the threshhold for a couple with a baby then they will still get WTC.

Have a look at https://www.entitledto.co.uk, input their details and see what it comes up with.

Also, if you look here you will find the threshholds -

2007/2008

From what you have posted I don't think that they will be over the threshhold, which is quite high.

Hope all goes well!
