🛑 Important Alert for Universal Credit Claimants! 🛑
Hey there, if you’re on Universal Credit, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has an important reminder for you! Keep your income and savings details current to make sure you’re receiving the correct payment amount. 👀💷
Unexpected financial boosts, such as inheritances or one-time payouts, can influence how much support you’re eligible for. The DWP stresses the importance of updating your account immediately if your financial situation changes. 💡
🏦 Key Changes to Report:
– Inheritance payments
– Redundancy pay
– Pension or life insurance lump sums
– Compensation payouts
– Changes in investments or assets
Failing to update your data may not just lead to overpayment, but could also result in penalties if incorrect information is found. 💼 You might have to pay back any extra money received, and nobody wants that!
Here’s how to avoid the hassle:
🔍 Log into your Universal Credit account
🔍 Go to the ‘money, savings and investments’ section
🔍 Report any change in circumstances
Remember, maintaining accuracy isn’t just about avoiding penalties. It ensures you’re getting the support you truly need. 💪 Need more info? Visit gov.uk/telldwp for the full scoop! 📲
