I assumed if you're out of work but able to work you'd be put on job seekers. it's nice if UC is available to those wishing to stay home with young babies though.She’d be entitled to it until Harlow was 2 and the she’d have to look for part time work. I don’t think she’s on UC anyway, Brett seems to earn a decent amount so if she was entitled to it there’d be barely anything coming in from that. I don’t think she ever began claiming after they split up cos let’s face it he got cosy in the bed again quick enough
Good point about Brett's income, though.
I thought beings they take inheritance and gifted money into account (that's what I've heard so correct me if I'm wrong) then they'd have access to people's bank accounts. Do they just rely on people declaring income?You can still receive UC if you do work, it’ll top up what you don’t earn on bad months if that makes sense? You’re right in saying the earnings are reported straight from HMRC though, not sure how people get around not disclosing they have a job. Not sure if UC receive the HMRC reports unless you declare you’re working. I think because she’s “self employed” and her earnings aren’t technically from a legit company with legit proceedings around wage slips, I doubt HMRC even know.
I feel like Charlie must get some money from somewhere even before laxilattes. She was always buying those doll dresses for Harlow and I can't see Brett paying out for them?
