hi to all
i started uni this year(foundation degree).
use to work full time as bus driver(never thought will do that job)
anyway...
being dad of 2 i was getting housing benefit(OH looking afer them at home).
because of studies have to start working part time-so have to tell housing beneffit about changes.
I got a grant as well.
do i need to tell housing about my grant??
if so will it reflect my benefit??
(i beleive must be honest),but this uncertanity is killing me.
thank you.

What grant is it that you have received?

Checked the papers...
1.special support grant
2.adult dependant grant
3.parents learning allowance

You need to declare everything.

The Adult Dependent Grant and your part time earnings will be counted as income, however the other two will not.
