Universal Credit keep asking me to input my incoming and outgoings?



I keep getting requests from dwp to fill in my incoming and outgoings for universal credit payments but I get nothing because I've been earning too much on paye job £1600 net a month pkus my self employment income which is what i input.  Been in this job since Dec 2024.  I got my last payment back in Feb or March when I was coming to tyexend of my transistional protection.  

It's now Aug 2025 and haven't received any money for months, shall I stop bothering you enter my ingoings and outgoings?  Just ignore the requests?

    As long as your claim remains open, you will be required to report your earnings so they can calculate whether or not you are entitled to anything. If you are confident that you are earning enough and/or not entitled to anything, you can ask for your claim to be closed.
    If you fail to declare your earnings, they will repeatedly message you for around a month reminding you, and then eventually just close your claim for failure to provide evidence of earnings.
