Working extra hours during the semester break may affect your student payment

Published: 29 November 2024

You need to report how much money you make, so we can pay you the right amount.

If you’re a student or apprentice working extra hours during the semester break, you need to report your gross employment income.

Your gross income is the amount you get before tax and other deductions. You can find your gross pay amount on your payslip.

If you don’t report your income correctly, we may overpay you and you’ll need to pay the money back.

Watch this video for tips about getting your reporting right.
