Please help myself and my partner have just been granted joint income support- he is also unable to work due to a disability. i am 4 months pregnant and am a teacher but unemployed- the chance of some supply work may crop up- it pays really well about 100 a day but id probably only get 4 days a month. how much can you earn whilst receiving income support? please get back to me- thank you! is it worth me working or not?
