Universal Credit as a Teen Mum

29 replies

Vinvin08 · 26/02/2025 21:10

Hi all,
I recently applied for universal credit to claim for my LO but wasn't able to provide any of the ID it asks for (payslips, driver's license, etc) as I am 17 and do not work. I'm expecting a phone call in 2-3 days about it and am worried about what they will ask for as I don't have many documents - Only my birth certificate and NI number really.

Does anybody know what will they will ask for over the phone and If I will have to go to an in-person interview? Any help's appreciated. Thanks all
