UK urges Universal Credit recipients to update online accounts when living situations change to avoid overpayments and debt.
The UK's Department for Work and Pensions is urging Universal Credit claimants to update their online accounts if their living situation changes, such as moving in with a partner, to avoid overpayments that must be repaid.
Claimants who begin cohabiting must switch from claiming the single person’s allowance to a couple’s claim, which affects their payment amount.
Failing to report such changes can lead to incorrect payments and financial penalties.
The DWP emphasized that timely updates are essential to ensure accurate benefits and prevent debt, reminding claimants to check their circumstances regularly and report changes through their online account.
