    I'm physically away from my son 30 hours a week with school :/
    I can't figure out if part time study makes me eligible for JET with the 4 LOs
    i don't really think his schooling would really come in to it - as long as you are available while he is at school in case something happened and you were needed kwim?
    you'd need to talk to someone in the carers team to know for sure.
    they should be able to tell you if JET is compatible with Carers - from memory it is, but because i'm not trained in that payment stream, i can't say yes or no for sure

    They recently changed it. I received a letter only a couple of weeks ago stating that it was now 30 hours a week. I'd look online, or call them just to be sure though
