Hello,
Hypothetical question here. I've recently started claiming UC after burning out at work, and I've been handing in fit notes for the past 2 weeks. I hope to qualify for LCWRA given my health issues around depression/ADD.
I am a freelance artist and work in live performance. I would like to keep working part-time and my work will likely be funded by Creative Scotland through their
www.creativescotland.com/funding/funding...-for-individualsOpen Fund for Individuals .
My question is, if I were to receive a grant from Creative Scotland to fund an artistic project, how would I declare this to Universal Credit? In most cases, the grant would cover project and access costs - ie equipment, salaries for myself and other artists, insurance.
Would I put it through as self employment income, with expenses listed for the various artistic costs?
Thank you in advance, this website is a fabulous resource
