Calculations do not include any deductions that may be taken from your Universal Credit amount.

@Newcad - where’s the question… joking.

Thanks for letting us know the up date will certainly be beneficial to many migrating between now and April.

Errr, the question has to be - What took so long?
(Rhetorical, I know that people have been working on various versions, but TP is not an easy thing to calculate for all circumstances and they needed to be sure it was right before implementing it).
