Everything you need to know about Universal Credit 

I have had my child tax credits stopped because i got a migration notice and had no choice but to apply, the child tax credits which are for my nephews now they will go without the things they need, what has universal credit got to do with child tax credits and forcing people to go to work in my situation i live with my mum who has mouth cancer and needs my help for phonecalls or making appointments picking up medication ect and recently she had a biopsy that she has cancer in her cheek even though i have made it clear that i am not looking for work and not ready they still say that i am its not right or fair when i have to be there to support my mother through this difficult time, they just dont care and talk over you about your next appointment. I will be taking this further.

the uk government is legally bound by law , under the human rights act to protect the welfare of its citizens, with this in mind how can they legally impose sanctions upon people leaving them with no means to feed themselves, every uk citizen is entitled to this right from the day they are born in this country, so how can they make demands on you to get universal credit, they have to look out for your wellbeing by law, you are not bound by law to do anything to get Universal credit, so how can they tell you , you have to attend a mandatory meeting , and if you dont stop your only form of income

I was put on UC as a full time carer in 2018. I had rent arrears of £150 so my housing costs were paid direct from the start . 6 months later I had rent arrears of £6,000 ! I have paid of £2,000 for rent arrears via deductions . I have been living on £90 a week to run house and my costs as a carer . I have been food banks as well . I get battered with arrears from so called previous arrears I had no idea about . In 5 years I have paid £6,000 in total of arrears combined . I cannot survive and very stressed I cannot give up caring role as the person I care for will become extremely poorly

Get rid of UC it don't work it's bullying

I'm not arguing with the job center and working though shawtrust and been doing voluntary work

Not liking the Work Capability Assessment form, you need 15 points to get awarded, and its worded unfairly like "can you use either arm to reach above your head" well yeh, i can, but thats totally avoiding the point that i cant use "reach" with my other arm, all the questions are like that, its total bs.

Had to finish work on ill health was put esa until health assessment 77 pounds a week after assessment I get 259 every 2 week then on 19th universal credit and limited capability I should receive but the the esa is deducted from it which leaves 197 on 19th so giving me with one hand and then taking it off me can't afford my mortgage and bills

Clearly the old system was better if they cant even correctly give you what your entitled too, how can these people be trusted to help people find work when they cant do their own job properly

Job center is a load of wasted staff who do not have a clue

What happens if I get a job that is a zero hour contract

I'd like to make two points the guy from the Citizens Advice Bureau on about it's on one umbrella you still have to inform the council of yourself being on Universal Credit So to me it seems like two department yet again and I would like to ask Tom welfare benefits team this thing about earning money and taking money off Universal Credit asked about that couple years back and it was going to affects my rent with the council so it sort of put me off

There is no work we are going into a recession

I find job centers can't explain things better like how many hours can I work without affecting rent

I would like to have a long chat with Tom he might have a clever person on I t

Whoever thought of "Universal Credit" deserves a medal as this is much better than job seekers allowance! When i was on job seekers when i was 18, i only got a petty £75 fortnightly. where as an 18 year old nowadays on Universal Credit" would get roughly £300 fortnightly? what a difference! Had i ben on universal credit when i was 18 - 21, i would not only have not been evicted from my home but also would have been enjoying life a lot more than i did back then! my life was so depressing when i was 18 - 21 due to the government and what they deemed a single person needed to live on!

Suppose me and wife have under 16k savings together - what is classed as low income per month. ? I'm self employed and wife works part time. do we qualify. I earn around 4k a month. do I qualify?

did anyone notice at 2 mins in the guy states UC has replaced what was known as ' legacy benefits/payments? having learnt about the c est qui vie trust, this highlights & kinda proves they exist! whynelse use the word legacy?
