Hi during standard reviews is your claim suspended. I'm worrying if they take weeks I won't be paid

    Hi @Pinto. You'll still receive your payments as normal during the review. The only circumstances where payments would be stopped are as follows:

    During the review, your Universal Credit payment will only be stopped if one of the following applies:

    • you do not provide the documents
    • you do not attend your telephone appointment
    • you’re not eligible for Universal Credit

    As long you provide the documents they ask for and attend any appointments you'll be fine, try not to worry.

    I went through a UC review recently and my payments were suspended because i failed to provide evidence of capital. I just had to send 4 bank statements and my payments were restored.

    if your payments are suspended, but you do what the review officer asks to get payments reinstated, your payments will continue as normal.
