Work requirement

As a single parent on universal credit, can anyone shed any light on how many hours you actually have to work? As I keep hearing different things. It says "upto 35" hours online But I have friends who work 19.. Can you make you work outside of school hours? I have a 3 yr old Thanks đź©·

you don’t have to work full time until the lil one is in school full time.. they will tell you to get a 35h job but your not obligated and nothing will change… as long as you show that you’re looking for something suitable

They can make you work outside of school hours because there’s childcare available whether that’s wrap around care at school or childminders etc! At 3 you’re expected to be looking for work up to 16 hours a week Age 5 it increases to 30 hours After age 12 it’s 35 I believe c

Thank you all.xx
