Hi I am just in the process of claiming universal credit and It looks like I can’t claim anything which I am really confused about. They say my loan has a yearly income is around £692 per month, I have a child but don’t pay rent as I live at home. They work it out as Follows:- £251.77 allowance plus £277.08 child equals £528.85 then they take off £692.30 as income so leaves £-163.45, so I cant claim !!!
Is I was on child tax credit anyone with an income of less than £16k a year get £277 per month, how can this be????
Thanks
