    This link may help you work out what you'll be entitled to - it has various links that explain about what is classed as work, etc.

    Universal Credit is being rolled out to replace the majority of benefits such as JSA, tax credits etc - one monthly payment rather than bits and peices from different benefit agencies.

    Sorry, I'm not all that knowledgeable when it comes to all the types of credits etc And i know i wont exactly come across greatly when i state the following, but When you say 'universal credit', i know you don't exactly mean working tax credit which is what i was asking about, but just to clarify, the limit to be eligible for working tax credits is £16k? Would just like to confirm for my own understanding on how this all works. Thanks again for the help.

    There is no limit for savings, to get WTC the way it just now, I dont think the question is asked on the form .
