UC and company car allowance

Hello, please can anyone tell me if company car allowance should be counted as part of my salary for universal credit? I need a car for work so I could get a company car or take a cash alternative but I have to have a car for my job. I have asked the question in my journal but it’s been ignored and I can’t seem to find anything. Thank you

The company car allowance would be counted as income as it is added to your salary.I imagine company car would not be but you may have to pay tax as it may be classed as benefit in kind (BIK).3

This is not necessarily straightforward but the question may reach more knowledgeable contributors if the thread is move to the Benefits Forum.nyla83 said:Hello, please can anyone tell me if company car allowance should be counted as part of my salary for universal credit?
