      Hi everyone,

      I’m new to this and wondered if anyone is in this position? I work part time and am now in a position where I can perhaps go full time. At the moment I get universal credit as I am on a low income, help with rent and help with dental etc. if I go back full time my taxes etc will go up, probably all help will go but maybe I still might get universal credit I don’t know. It might not be worthwhile going back full time. I can’t get an appointment to speak with anyone to help me but is anyone else in this position and did you benefit going back? I won’t need childcare or anything do I don’t have costs like that, thanks xxx

      Hi there

      You could try using the universal calculator to work out what you would still be entitled to if you moved onto a full time wage. It isn’t 100% accurate but very close.
