Hi I’m awaiting my universal credit decision, April 29th with payment on May 3rd. If i chose to take an advance payment (I haven’t) they can offer me just over £1100. What does this say about my award at the end of April ?
does this amount give some sort of indication ?
thank you

It probably means your maximum entitlement is £1100. You may get less if you have other income.
you can use a benefit calculator to work out what you should expect https://www.gov.uk/benefits-calculatorsInformation I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Some rules may be different in other parts of UK.0 -
Thank you0

Do be aware that if you take the advance payment then this will need to be repaid back from future UC payments.
