Can I combine two part time job hours for universal credit?
Hi there Currently on tax credits, have recieved my migration notice. Currently work 21 hours in 1 job, I am profoundly deaf (I get DLA) and find this particular role very challenging due to noisy environment. I live in a rural area and don’t drive so finding another job is challenging. However, I have found two jobs in a local school, one is 15 hours a week and the other role is 6.25 hours a week. I understand universal credit like people to work at least 18.5 hours a week? My husband is full time, we have 3 children who attend school so as I understand it my work coach will advice me 18.5 hours a week? So if I had two different roles for the same school with combined hours of 21.25 would the work coach be happy with this? It is minimum wage. Thanks
