Universal credit and moving house

2 replies

Hi just hoping someone with knowledge could advise me..
im moving house soon into a new borough which causes an automatic transition to universal credit from working tax credit. Will this be immediate or will they be in touch with me to apply after moving house?
Im so worried about having no money as moving house is expensive enough without waiting 5 weeks for a UC payment too. I’m also on Mat leave so my income is poor at the moment and I know UC will be low due to my mat allowance.

any advice would really help thanx

It would only affect you if you need to claim UC rent element.

It will be full entitlement until I go back to work but with MA deducted
