Move to Universal Credit Awareness Sessions
Following on from the launch of our report into the ‘Move to Universal Credit’, Advice NI will be hosting a number of information sessions aimed at legacy benefit claimants and those who work with them.
The aim of the session is to inform people about Managed Migration and make sure those affected are best prepared to make the move.
The session will cover the following aspects of the ‘Move to Universal Credit’:
- the Managed Migration process, including the Migration Notice and the requirement to make a claim to Universal Credit;
- how to make a claim for Universal Credit;
- managing a claim for Universal Credit, including using the Online Portal, payment and assessment procedures and work-related requirements;
- financial support, including legacy benefit run-on, transitional protection and the Contingency Fund.
Information provided will draw on the experiences of advisers and claimants revealed through our research.
