Please could you quote for a accurate report on "the legal
boundaries" for accepting "incapacity benefit".The reason I ask, is
that, if I were to receive a regular income from external activities
,that do not require obvious work for example gambling.
Would I be contravening my
"benefit status".By income ,I mean 250 to 350 a month tax free.What
I am looking for are cases.The DHSS do say ,"any work up to sixteen
hours" a week must beIt's just a "Comment" --you're not charged until a Researcher posts in
the Answer box. It will open up between the light purple Answer and
Comment bars.This page happears to have information for you. Scroll about 2/3 of
the way down to:
"Working while claiming benefit" AND "Permitted work"
http://www.jobcentreplus.gov.uk/JCP/Customers/WorkingAgeBenefits/Dev_008025.xml.htmlGood answer.I am still looking for cases of breach "Incapacity" conditions.It seems that there is also the question whether gambling is ?work?.
For most people it is not, for a few it is a way of living.
Interestingly, this site indicates that income from gambling is NOT
taxable :)
http://www.adviceguide.org.uk/n6w/index/life/tax/tax-exempt_and_taxable_income.htm
(scroll down to fourth from last item under ?other income which is exempt?)
Of course, this is not the last word from Inland Revenue on tax, but
if gambling income is not taxed, it would seem that that you would not
be ?working? within the terms of the site Cynthia posted (and there
would be no control between government departments).#If you have any other info about this subject , Please add it free.# |
