Green Energy Grant and Universal credit

smallzoo2

There seems to be mixed messages on some of the application forms for the green energy grant so I wondered if someone could clarify it.
If anyone who lives at the property is on UC does that mean you tick the box on the application form or is it only if the homeowner and partner/wife is on UC ?
cheers

I too would like an answer to this question. I am a homeowner  but not on benefits. My adult son who lives with me is on PIP. It mentions vulnerable groups on PIP but does not indicate if they are eligible to claim as a member of the household. I cant find an answer anywhere, It is very ambiguous. Has anyone else in a similar position as me had a successful claim? Please help!

I applied and my daughter is on UC as she lost her job due to COVID-19. The government portal eligibility questionnaire said we would be entitled to the full amount as she is on UC and lives within my household.

I redid the questionnaire again just based on my circumstances as I get a small amount of child tax credits for my younger daughter and was once eligible for the full amount. Whether l do actually get the full amount remains to be seen 🤷🏽‍♀️
