The DWP is issuing guidance to help thousands of claimants move onto Universal Credit
The Department for Work and Pensions is planning to give an extra two weeks' payments to thousands of people on four benefits. This is part of a big changeover, with the DWP issuing guidance to help thousands of claimants move onto Universal Credit.

This will only happen if they still meet the eligibility criteria for their existing benefit, reports Nottinghamshire Live.
It typically takes five weeks to get your first Universal Credit payment. After that, it will come on the same date each month, unless this falls on a weekend or bank holiday. In those cases, it would go into your account on the nearest working day before. You can only get this if you've been sent a letter telling you to switch to Universal Credit and you do it by the date on the letter. You can't get it if you choose to move to Universal Credit yourself. If things change after you've claimed, any extra help you get might stop.
