Working while on BTEA

    I'm currently doing a year one course and receiving BTEA at €193.00 per week, I qualify for it through my JA payment of €102.70 per week. I'm finished college by 1pm each day (Monday to Friday) and I'm free on weekends too.

    I desperately want a job but don't want to mess up my BTEA as I rely on it for financial support with college.

    Does anyone know how the means testing for BTEA works and if so could someone give me an example please.

    Let's say I'm on minimum wage and doing 20 hours per week, so €185.00 per week from working and then my €193.00 per week from BTEA.

    Thanks in advance for any help, its much appreciated as this situation is frustrating me.
