The DWP has published the list shows the local authorities and jobcentres that will begin to deliver Universal Credit between February and April 2015.

In the jobcentres listed, Universal Credit will roll out to new claims from single people who would otherwise have been eligible for Jobseeker’s Allowance, including those with existing housing benefit and working tax credit claims.

Universal Credit will then roll out to more jobcentres in stages, until national expansion is complete in spring 2016.

The list of local authorities and jobcentres that will begin the national expansion of Universal Credit is available @ https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/universal-credit-national-exp...
