Daughter just started work will if effect Housing benefit

A question about : Daughter just started work will if effect Housing benefit

We are a family of 5, Me my wife and 3 children, 13 ,15 and17

The 17 year old is doing a full time collage course but at weekends she works 6 to 10 hours per week, Just rang tax credits to renew and they said her wages don't count on my total income as shes in full timeeducation and works under 24 hours per week.

But will I have to tell the housing benefits office and ifso will I lose any benefit,

At the moment I'm on incapacity benefit and my wife works 2part time jobs and we get housing and council tax benefit

Best answers:

• No - her part-time working has no impact on your benefits whilst she is in full-time further (secondary) education.
