Hi was just wondering does anyone know what exactly happens when there is a change in circumstances and moved to universal credits. my childcare price will change soon as child older and Wondering do they look for everything again like bank statements etc. Thank you

Hi reillys, I've had changes in childcare and not had to move to universal credit- have you been definitely told you will have to? I think it depends a lot on area where you live, unfortunately I can't work out exactly how it would affect things (I think I'll be worse off when it changes- working 30h weeks, 2 children, one in childcare, but some people might be better off too- my youngest changed from nursery to after school club though and was not moved onto universal credit then).
