    And if the OP's income rises by, say, £5100 to £36,000 will they take into account all of that rise (so they get nothing) or will they disregard £5000 of it (as they do for when income drops) and award based on an income of £31,000?

    They would just take into account £100 rise in that example. You still get the full £5000 disregard.

    Sounds reasonable, then.
    Unfortunate for the OP that they missed out in terms of last year. But it sounds like they should do better this year because of last year's reduced income.
