Hi, my name is jacklily221!

hello

I’m new to the community. I just wondered if someone could offer any advise. My daughter has been awarded dla. I contacted universal credit asking for carers and the disability element to be backdate to the 4th March. They are only backdating to the 25th May, as this is when I went from a joint to a single claim. Is this correct?

It seems so unfair I had to do the single claim due to domestic violence. Seems unfair to lose 3 months of backdah because of this. Thank you
