    Your notification of a sanction should have said how long it would last. If it was failure to attend appointments then I would expect it to be a low level sanction which would be less than 90 days. https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/benefits/universal-credit/sanctions/check-sanction/
    How has your claim been treated since October - have any additional sanctions been applied.

    If you had an online journal you should be able to make a reclaim through your journal.
    Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Some rules may be different in other parts of UK.
  • The sanction has no end date until you go to a new appointment. You need to call them and go in. Your money could still be affected for quite some time depending on how long it took them to make the decision.

    It will continue until you comply with whatever caused the sanction plus a further 7 days I think it is after compliance if its the first sanction and then it varies after that for 2nd, 3rd etc.
