If you work 20hrs a week, are you entitled to any form of housing benefit?
My friend and I have been in debate about this and we cannot find detailed information on the net. She has been struggling to find full time work and the only jobs going in our area are around the 20hrs a week mark. She has accepted a Job at £5.80/hr on a 20hr week. This is not enough for her to pay rent of £550/month and live on.
Is she entitled to government support? She has no children, 23years old and single.
She thinks that if you work under 16hrs you are entitled to help but anything over you are not entitled to anything... I can't believe this is true... is it?
Surely working at something is better than not working at all and recieving full benefits?
Thanx
