Posted this via Disability thread as I have m.s.
Just noticed this generous increase on Gov site which could be useful.
From 6 April we are increasing the standard allowance in Universal Credit and the basic element in Working Tax Credit for 1 year. Both will increase by £20 per week on top of planned annual uprating. This will apply to all new and existing Universal Credit claimants and to existing Working Tax Credit claimants.

Thanks @venison, that's useful info, I had thought payments started from early April, though if it's May it is still very useful indeed
for 12 months.
Have I just found additional sum to add to my HL Fund.
Edited if wtc increase does go ahead as planned, then it could be possible to reduce debt a few months, in addition to HL fund increase.Replenished CRA Reports.2020 Nissan Leaf 128-149 miles top charge. Savings depleted. VM Stream tv M250 Volted to M350 then M500 since returned to 1gb0
