Some benefits can affect how much Universal Credit you receive. Our records show that you are not getting any of these benefits.

Benefits that can affect Universal Credit are:

  • Jobseeker's Allowance
  • Employment and Support Allowance
  • Carer's Allowance
  • Carer Support Payment
  • Maternity Allowance
  • Bereavement Allowance (including Widowed Parent's Allowance)
  • Widow's Pension (including Widowed Mother's Allowance)
  • State Pension
  • Incapacity Benefit
  • Severe Disablement Allowance
  • Industrial Injuries Disablement Benefit

If you are actually getting one or more of these benefits, you must contact the office you claim them from. Tell them you're now getting Universal Credit and to update their records.

    Your Income Related ESA claim ended once you claimed UC.

    So unless you receive something else on that list, the message is correct and you don't need to contact them.
