Hello @lostcherry
I believe you can apply for one once the other has been paid off. You could also look at Turn2US for grants you may be eligible for0 -
You can have a new claim advance and a budgeting advance at the same time, I know because I have them

@Ray212 Thank you for clarifying with your experience. All the benefit advice pages just talk about paying one off before the other.0

Yes if you had a budgeting advance and you wanted another for example but they have the advance that everyone can get while they wait for their first payment. Which doesn't need to be paid off before you can apply for a budgeting advance.They do need to be claiming universal credit for at least 6 months before applying for a budgeting advance however1

This is why the community exists,
the many different experiences our many members offer can be such a good resource than an advice page, which has to be written in a very general way that doesn't deal with specific situations.
Thank you @Ray2121
