UC forgot to update claim

5 replies

I'm kind of new to UC and back in April, when I lost my job, I started a claim for UC.
I started work again at the end of May.
My employer sent all my income over and my payments were adjusted accordingly.

But....I forgot to update the claim saying I'd started work.

The payments all seem correct as some months I work more hours and it's all been recorded in my account.

I wrote in my journal that I'd started work and gave details but nobody mentioned anything and I just didn't think.
I did a few hours for an agency over the past week and also recorded this in my journal.
The workcoach mentioned that on my claim I must report the change.

Am i going to get into serious trouble though if I didn't update the claim?

In my account it details how much has been taken off because of my reported earnings is what I meant.

I'm really stressing now though.

Your heading is misleading, as it was you that made the error. Just make sure everything is updated now.

Just update now and put the date when the change happened. Your employer has been reporting earnings so they obviously know you are working and have bene for some time.
