Hello im hoping someone can help.

Has anyone ever applied for a budgeting advance from UC? What questions do they ask? Is it fairly straight forward? Can you apply via your journal?

Im starting a new job soon and would like to buy some work clothes hence why I want to apply for the budgeting advance

Thanks in advance!

Have you heard of the Flexible Support Fund:

No certainty you'd be eligible/successful but it's there.
