Not sure ? Thanks.
You say you have started Permitted Work, have the DWP confirmed that that the work you are doing is acceptable to them as PW?
With regard to expenses, you need to get face to face advice, as it at the discretion of a DWP Decision maker as to whether they take account of these factors, and exceeding either of the PW limits, can have a significant impact on your benefits.
