Help!
Hi guys, hope someone can help.
We’re new to UC and our first client has us stumped!!
Claimant is 19 and claimed UC as a single person. Claim was made mid November when we went live. His partner, who is 17 and a student, has just moved in.
Claimant’s partner thinks he has had an advance payment of UC, so I am not sure whether he is able to break the claim.
Any advice would be appreciated. Can he break UC claim and make a joint claim to legacy benefits with his partner, or is that him in now for good?
