Hello!

I am currently claiming univeral credit and getting additional support for LCWRA. My grandmother has recently passed away and left me £2000. I have no savings and this will be used to pay off debt. 

Must I inform the DWP of this inheritance or only if it is over £6000?

Thank you.

    Savings of less than £6,000 are ignored and you do not need to inform UC.
