Page 6 Hopefully can help you. I presume it covers the tax credit as well. -
You will need to report the changes to Tax credits and Child benefit and both will then end.She will then be able to claim claim Universal Credit in her own right. She needs to make sure she reports her health condition, supported by a fit note within 7 days of that. This will then prompt them the refer her for a work capability assessment, usually from day 29 but can be longer.More information here https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/universal-credit-if-you-have-a-disability-or-health-condition-quick-guide/universal-credit-if-you-have-a-disability-or-health-condition
You will also need to report the changes to your local Authority if you’re claiming either council tax reduction and/housing benefit.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
