Hi,
I am lucky that my employer pays homeworkers £90extra for homeworkers. Thia month all employees have been given this to help toward utilities and internet. Whixh i do need had to increase speed and gas and elec gone up dramatically. However, this will be seen as a wage increase by UC. If I explain what the uplift is for will they still deduct as wages?

I’m no UC expect but almost certainly yes, if it’s part of your salary. If it’s paid as non taxable expenses then no.kaos21 said:Hi,
