Universal credit claim review

26 replies

Hi everyone
I am currently going through the universal credit review process. I submitted my bank statements and ID & now have a telephone review to go "review evidence" and "provide further evidence"

All of my income is from universal credit, but every now and again my mum and dad have sent me small amounts to help me sometimes financially. Also, ds's father sends me bits of money when he can for his child, mostly £15-£20 here and there. In 4 months my parents have sent me around £100 in total and ds's father around £200 in 4 months

I have also sent my mum money back that I've owed her and ds father money back that I've owed him which they have probably given me in cash. It's barely anything though

I struggle a lot with managing money and don't even remember what half of my transactions were for

Would this be classed as another income. I mean, the money they have sent me does not help me towards my rent & bills etc. mostly just bits to buy for me & ds

Thank you in advance
Biscuit
