 am another managed migration person whose UC has  not covered  Tax credits so there is big reduction in payment. JC say its a mistake but havent corrected it .They advise making Uc claim for the disabled adult and ask for ESA so he/she can attend College as usual. Tax credit eligibility would end this summer anyway  but we will have lost 5 months TC .Any advice welcome. thanks

    For some very odd reason UC are not calculating the Transitional protection until after the first payment for a lot of people.

    You mention a disabled adult, is this your son or daughter? How old are they please?

    Students and UC are not a great match so it will be unlikely that they could claim UC as a full time student. 

    Why have you been underpaid UC? Have you put a message onto your journal under the payment section to ask? 

    If this is a recent claim for UC then they usually calculate your Transitional Protection after your first payment.
