flag UK reviewing savings and assets to check eligibility for benefits like Universal Credit.

flag The UK Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is reviewing a wide range of financial assets, including cash, investments, and property, to assess eligibility for benefits like Universal Credit and Pension Credit. flag Savings limits vary, with payments reducing or stopping if savings exceed £6,000 or £16,000, respectively. flag Some lump-sum payments and investments count as savings, but specific compensations are excluded. flag Deliberately reducing assets to claim benefits can lead to scrutiny and potential disqualification.
