Hey, I am moving over to universal credit, I have 2 children. 1 in university living at home with us however not working and the other in high school. Regarding my child in university living with us and not making any money when it comes to showing bank statements me and my husband need to show ours but what about our daughter will she need to show hers too? Thanks.

If she's uni age she's not on your claim.

No she simply goes down a a none dependent. You won't get any money for her as she should be getting student finance to support herself.

The one advantage is that she still 'exists' for a bedroom count and shouldn't be penalised rent allowance-wise.
