Eligibility for 85% of childcare for how long after working?

[Briskingeniousforce]

Hi.

Does anybody know precisely how long after stopping work you are still able to claim up to 85% of childcare on Universal Credit, please?

Gov websites state for at least a month after stopping work, so I'm wondering if this means they may accept childcare costs that were incurred in the assessment period following that within which your last working date was?

Does anybody have any experience or insight with this, please?

My work coach doesn't always answer my questions.

Run-on after work stops
Claimants who stop work and have paid for childcare, may be paid a proportion of these costs for the assessment period in which they stopped work and for the following assessment period. Claimants who do not restart work by the end of the next assessment period will not be eligible for help with childcare costs until they meet the qualifying conditions. This run-on also supports those who make their initial Universal Credit claim within a month of losing their job, and who have pre-existing childcare.

Does that help?
