Can I request to close uc whilst under review

chels001

I was asked for 4 mo the bank statements last week so submitted them but now moving in with family and just want to close the claim and all the hassle with it. I have nothing to hide and sent all info over but I just want to close it!

It may still go ahead. They're checking your past payments to make sure they're correct. If you don't provide the information they ask for, they could potentially ask for at least 4 months worth of UC payments to be paid back to them.

Alternatively, it may just end and you wouldn't hear anything else from them.

That isn't all of the information though. They generally contact people by phone to go through a few of the transactions etc.
