What do you mean by "should ask UC to redo my claim"? Each assessment period you're reassessed.

 Your claim is assessed each month based on what you and your partner are paid in that month. There is no other reassessment

Can you see what the difference is between your UC Statements and this test? 
Do you mean one of the benefit calculatiors? 
Their results do rely on accurate information being put into them.

The online calculators are not always accurate. As long as you have a standard element and rent element on your claim then your current award is likely to be correct. If you have more than one bedroom then you would still only get the one bedroom housing allowance as your son only lives with you at weekends. Maintenance paid to your ex is not considered.

 This test I assume is a benefits calculator? Did you input your wages before or after your maintenance to your ex? Because you need the figure before, the DWP don't take your responsibilities to your ex into account.

The difference between your wages with and without the collection target bonus is £4200 a year, did you include that in the calculations?


What you're entitled to is calculated every month based on what you've told them and your wages
