As Universal Credit rolls out more and more legacy benefit claimants are faced with the prospect of claiming Universal Credit. These ‘natural migrations’ will not be provided with transitional protection and in many cases will receive less on UC than on legacy benefits.
This course will provide staff and volunteers with the tools needed to understand when a claim for Universal Credit is the only option. There will be particular emphasis on the Severe Disability Premium (SDP) gateway that prevents a claimant being able to claim Universal Credit.
