WFA for husband

Hallo, I'm rather confused 😕. 
My husband will receive the WFA this year, however I'm still working part time, will my earnings be taken into account?
Thanks

    Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!

    The winter fuel payment is paid according to your age  and whether any one else you live with also qualifies for a payment.

    income less than £35,000 does not matter. 

    If you are eligible by age you are eligible regardless of your income unless you earn over £35,000. 

    That restriction applies to each individual receiving the payment. Your income cannot affect your husband’s payment.
