Ok Thankyou its on November statement which isnt getting sent ti them i was actually confused when the payment was there thought it was a mistake as claim closed dec 2024 it was just what they owed me i got letter later explaining so just dec to march statements i will download to them and my savings thats fluctuating all the time but I buy furniture and stuff so dip in and out of it ,its very stressful right now I need to send these by the 16th thats my deadline date im guessing these reviews will be more regular in the future I had one end of April last year x

I had a review in September 2023 & nothing since, others seem to have them frequently.

Unfortunately there is no publicly available official information as to the guidelines UC work from, for anyone to know for sure why they are rare for some & more frequent for others.

Im only 23 and on lwrca have been a few years now due to a lot of things , could that be why ive got another so soon , im just going through a lot right now mentally baby loss my head is all over the place and my last review he lady didn't ask anything about transactions just the usual savings etc which I had to update and the review was completed same day im not bothered that they want statements, I do have problems not understanding declaring money so might get in trouble unspent money at end of my ap but Im not the best at maths (thick ) but even last time the lady explained i still didn't get it ive nothing to hide at all so not stressed i dont have 6k in savings wish I had its all confusing but im sure they will explain things in an easier way I just dont understand unspent the nxt ap all that so it goes over my head all that stuff never had money in my account only benefits have ocd so impulse buy stuff used some money to buy furniture bedroom stuff but thats it really just worrying about getting in to trouble for not putting my unspent every month sorry for the long post
