UC allowance - Leaving the part time job
Comments

Thanks for the detailed explanation. Even with my main job and without OT I'm well above the threshold amount. Hopefully in case I decided to quit the job they won't be asking my wife to study a course or look for a job.
Also will my UC will increase in the case where I quit the job and loose an approximate amount of £264. I do not mind even if they not consider to increase my current UC allowance as long as they do not ask my wife to work as I need to concentrate on my elder sons study as he has few important exams coming up next year and she should be able to concentrate only to that cause.

Yes. Because your earnings have down the earnings deduction will go down and therefore your UC will go up (by £145).danielD70 said: Also will my UC will increase in the case where I quit the job and loose an approximate amount of £264.Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Some rules may be different in other parts of UK.1
