IIf the client or partner has earnings or income for a period that will reduce the Jobseeker Support Student Hardship payable to zero, then the Jobseeker Support Student Hardship will need to be suspended or cancelled.

Although the main benefit may be stopped, the client may still qualify for Extra help.
