Hello
Hoping someone will be able to answer my query.
Hoping someone will be able to answer my query.
I applied for UC last month after noticing that my Tax Credits was reduced by 75%. The reduction was expected as I went from part time to full time the previous year.
Using the calculators it was showing me that I would be better off on UC.
My claim has now been processed and I don’t receive any payment at all as all my entitlement goes to the Council to pay my rent.
The £650 payment (paid in 2parts) is it likely that will also go straight to the Council for rent or will I receive a payment.
