Want to do dro but maybe earning too much

DannyGold

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?

Why do you not have enough ?

Try a spending diary.

Do you buy alot of takeaways, buy lunch on your lunch break ?

You'd need to run it past someone who could do the calculations. With £300 joint surplus it sounds unlikely but the devil's in the detail.
