Why is your wage only £120? £6.31 x 22 is £138 and you wouldn't pay any tax/NI on that. Do you pay into a works pension?
I have a deduction for a pension and a cycle to work scheme.0 -

My older daughter works who lives with us which is why I don't get full housing/council tax. Which element of tax credits will I lose because of my cut in hours.i appreciate you saying find another job to top up my hours. Easier said than done.
So with reduced hours you will lose £62 WTC (CTC would remain same)
With no job you will lose £62+£120 = £182 and, if not sanctioned, would receive £113 so would lose £69
Has your partner looked at PIP?
Also if you give housing your revised income it is likely that your HB could increase. Is your older daughter covering the non-dependent deductions?0
