Uc savings update

I get paid on the 7th and 21st when do I update my savings it does not vary that much from. Month to month because I'm not working but just in case I need to know

You don't have to update anything, provided you have less than £6,000 in savings,

Hi,

If you're getting two payments each month due to an APA then we can't work out your assessment period dates just from payment dates alone.

Your assessment period dates should still be shown on the statements so have a look at those.

Sorry but I'm very confused now.

You've posted this in the UC section. And put UC in the title.

ESA payment dates are always different. They are never the same two months in a row because ESA is paid every 2 weeks, not every month.

LCWRA and sanction are both UC terms, they aren't part of ESA.

For Income Related ESA, you should update savings immediately as they go through another £250 threshold. That is very different to UC where you only have to update on one day each month.

This is quite stressful for me and esa will reduce my payments by 60 a month this is quite significant if they don't accept my excuse in writing for the 2k payment to mum I staywd previously when transitioning to contribution based esa 7559 in savings this is why I'm being flagged up I now have 4129 in savings

These statements I provide will not provide the amount spent on my holidays jersey etc hotels food because this occurred in September not August when esa are disputing my declaration
