UC review

kshields1

Hi,

I've just had a UC message on my account about a review call next week. I assume this is why they wanted me to complete forms about my bank statements and such.

I currently claim UC and PIP, no savings or anything. UC I'm on LCW. I've asked to have my new ADHD and autism diagnoses included, because my coach said I would probably be moved to LCRWA, but not heard anything.

Does anyone know what they'll ask in the call? And if I mention my new diagnoses there, would that be useful for getting my claim updated?

I'm just very anxious about it and knowing what to expect would help :)

This isn’t a review about your health conditions. It’s a review about your UC claim itself. They are looking to see if your claim is correct.

You will be asked to provide 4 months of bank statements as well as photo ID.

During the appointment you will be asked questions about any bank accounts you have as well as any PayPal accounts you have.

For your health conditions you can report changes to your health conditions by reporting a change of circumstances. You will need to provide fit notes. You will then be referred for another work capability assessment and be sent another UC50 form to fill in and return.

Ahhhhh okay. I've been told a few different things so I was confused what's actually going on.

I'd done the bank statements and photo ID, but didn't know what it was for. I've only just got the information about an appointment next week 20 minutes ago.

Ohhh, okay. Nothing interesting, unfortunately. Just the one main bank account. Have a savings account but nothing in it yet because money's tight. PayPal, only have it because it's easier for my brother to transfer the rent money he pays mum to me via that, due to bank account issues he has, and then I send both of ours to her via bank app.

I'd updated my health section on my account, and as requested, uploaded a fit note, then I was later told I actually didn't need to get it, and that was it, I wasn't told what would happen next, or about another work capability assessment or another form. I've just been waiting to see if they say anything else, I assumed they would at some point.

But that all makes a lot more sense, thank you for the explanation!
