I'm working 17.5 hours a week, and live independently, I tried applying for Working Tax credit but I was declined a claim because for you to be elligeable, you need to be 16 or over, supporting a child, you need to have disability and have none of those, last option is you need to be 25 years old working 30 hours a week.
I didn't qualify for any of those, is there any other benefit entitlement for part time workers who live independently?
