Income tax

Hi my son migrated from ESA he closed NS ESA claim and done it all with UC. After first UC payment had his 2 week run on from ESA deducted his payments with LCWRA now seem ok. But today he has a small Tax Refund from HMRC not worked for 17 years just had tiny pension £33.60 a month? Has anyone else had this appear in bank account. I don't know whether to tell UC

Thanks

@Wibbles hi he doesn't work was on ESA but closed it when migrating to UC. Only gets £33.60 a month from little pension but they deduct that as they know about it not sure why he has a rebate of £115

Just in case anyone else reads this in future, that graph has nothing to do with earnings. That is only showing the basic rates of Universal Credit for each type of claim from April 2025 to April 2026.
