Benefits - Certificate of Earnings Form


If either the you and/or partner are in employed paid work or have started employed work, (this also includes those who are directors of a company, but not Self-Employed.) we will require the following information:

  • The last five pay slips if you or your partner are paid weekly,
  • The last three pay slips if you or your partner are paid fortnightly
  • The last two pay slips if you or your partner are paid monthly.

If you do not have the sufficient pay slips then please ask your employer to fill in the Certificate of Earnings Form - Claimant and or Partner form.

If you or your partner are working under 16 hours and you or your partner are in receipt of Income Support or Employment Support Allowance or Job Seekers Allowance (income based) and you have notified JobCentre Plus of your changes and you are still in receipt of the benefit we will not need to be notified of any changes.

If you or your partner are working and also in receipt of Pension Credit, you will need to inform the Pension Service of any changes to your income.

If you have a non-dependant who is in employed paid work, we will need to see proof of their income

  • Their last five pay slips if they are paid weekly,
  • The last three pay slips if they are paid fortnightly
  • The last two pay slips if they are paid monthly

If they are not able to supply sufficient pay slips then they will need to ask their employed to fill in Certificate of Earnings Form - Non-Dependant form.

If you are unable to obtain the information from them you will need to contact us for how we can deal with the situation.
