I wander if someone could offer any advice please, I had my first UC statement through and there is no housing on there, I go work part time as I’m a carer for my daughter.

They said the rent amounts didn’t match I think due to the April increase and they sent it off for confirmation but it wasn’t done in time.

Does anyone know what will happen next please or any advice around be gratefully appreciated

    Once the rent amount has been confirmed behind the scenes, a letter will be added to your Journal stating the amount you were underpaid on your previous statement.

    The money will then be sent and arrive into your bank account within a few working days.
