Meeting to prove identity for universal credit- how long does it take for the work coach to approve it?

[qdoana]

My meeting is on Monday and my deadline for benefit change over is Friday that same week.

When I take all of my evidence of my identity how long is it then for my identity to be approved? Is it then and there or will it take pass my deadline date or Friday?

It's then and there,just don't do what I did and take your daughters passport instead.

I did all my ID checks after the deadline, I just had my main application done by the relevant date, and they asked me to attend the following week. They do it there and then, it takes 5 minutes and they send it off to the team dealing with your application.

@Freeasabird76 @CreepySquareBrackets thank you

The only thing is I've changed my name through a statutory declaration. My passport is in my name but my bank is my old name. Both on my birth certificate and then my statutory declaration. Will this be fine?

Yes I had a change of name deed and it was fine.
