Trigger to UC

Hello,

18 year old son thinking of leaving education hence child tax credits will stop. Is this a trigger from tax credits to UC if working 32 hours or does only the child tax credit element cease?

Have looked at all the change of circumstances which trigger a move to UC and can't see one which fits this.

Thanks

Ted

    This isn't classed as a change of circumstances and won't prompt a move to UC.
