Universal credit is a maze. This new guide is DR UK's essential guide to finding your way through that maze, written by our in-house benefits experts. It will help you maximise income for yourself and your clients and avoid the pitfalls – such as having your benefit sanctioned.
The guide covers:
- The qualifying criteria
- How you claim
- Help with housing costs
- The work capability assessment
- Your responsibilities
- How universal credit is paid
- Moving from legacy benefits
- How to appeal
A new version of the guide has been published in April, fully updated for 2024/25 and is available to download now for free - see below.
Formatted printed copies are available to from our online shop or by adding to cart below:
