    How do you receive your statements are present?  If in hard copy (Paper) then do you not keep them?  If paperless then via email?…

  • You'll only need one recent bank statement to start with - for the id checks. They may or may not request further bank statements at any point during your claim. Don't worry about it until they ask. They won't want credit card statements.

    Regular, long standing payments to child's ISA won't be considered deprivation of capital. They'd need to prove that you'd done it deliberately for the purposes of manipulating your UC entitlement, which clearly could never be the case from 10 -20 years ago.
  • I get paper statements and hubby gets online ones... I am thinking of phoning them and asking forba paper copy rather tjan online... I not too computer based..
