Scan date 10/10, waiting patiently for feel less and less hopeful.

It looks like they are just finishing all the end of September this week. My scan date is also Oct so expecting at least another 2 weeks maybe. Don't lose hope xx

Does anyone know if getting the back payment they deduct money off your universal credit the same way they would when earning wages? Or does it not effect that at all. Thanks xx

No, it's not considered earnings, and is backdated money you should have been entitled to for your child, so not affected.

I was paid yesterday, so I'm expecting the next payment 4 weeks (yesterday) as payments are on Wednesday's. To be fair, I haven't had the letter yet, so I'll just wait to see what that confirms.
