Want to do dro but maybe earning too much
Options
My earnings are about 1500mnth, and we get about 1500 universal credit
Our rent is about 1500 and living expenses only about 1200
Yet we don’t have any left at the end of the month
Could I increase my expenses so that only £50 left at the end of the month so we qualify?
