Posting for a friend.
She gets CA for her son (no other means tested benefits as her husband works full time). She did a one off day's work in December for which she will be paid in late Feb- it will be over the earnings threshold so she knows she will lose one weeks CA.
Will that money be taken into account in the week she is paid it, or the week she did the work? She has tried to declare it on their website but failed as it wanted to know how much it will be, and she only knows roughly.
