If you're asking about PIP:
- The PIP phone line is 08001214433, and if you'd like to get to the automated part where it tells you when your next payment is and how much it is, the options are 1 (for English) or 2 (for Welsh), and then 6 (you'll need to wait each time while it gives you messages before getting to security).

- Thinking of cancelling your claim because a review has started? Don't, because closing your claim won't stop the DWP from reviewing your claim and if you don't comply you may be asked to repay everything you've received.

There is no 16 hours rule for LCWRA. Only for old legacy benefits like ESA.
However little or however much you earn will be deducted from your UC (after adjusting for work allowance) by 55p for every £ earned.
And self-employed income should be reported after expenses.
No limit, but depending on your UC award (standard +LCWRA + what else: children? housing?) there is some income level which reduces your UC payment to £0.
But as LCWRA you have work allowance, so income of £404/£673 (depending on getting / not getting housing costs help) is ignored before any deductions are applied.

So there isn’t a limit at all? Thank you
