Hi @janeydee28 did you find out anymore on the transitional protection please as UC are absolutely useless with giving me any info on this as my son comes off my UC claim this August 2025..  I’ve written on my journal and been told it might end the transitional protection as it’s a significant change! Yet nobody can confirm this for definite which is shocking considering that’s what UC advisers are there to do! I’m dreading it as it’s showing I’ll go from £1626 a month to £393 a month and I’m stressed to the max! I seriously don’t know how I will manage losing that much money ey in one go! It’s making me feel really unwell mentally.. Can anybody advise me please xx
