UK's DWP clarifies Universal Credit adjustments: £0.55 deducted for every £1 earned, with a £617 upfront advance option.
The UK's Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has clarified how Universal Credit payments adjust based on monthly earnings.
For every £1 earned, £0.55 is deducted from the benefit.
Recipients may also apply for an upfront £617 advance payment to cover expenses, which must be repaid later.
This advance can help during the initial wait for Universal Credit payments, which typically start seven days after the first assessment period.
