edited May 1 in Universal Credit (UC)

Hello,

I just received my UC statement for this month. I know you don't get full new amount in May after April because tax year stars on 6th of April, but they still have my amount of NS ESA for last year £609.05. Will this update next month or do I need to tell them of new amount. I assume they know already as they knew when I was migrated over from legacy benefits. There isn't an option in the UC change of Circumstances for other benefits. Thank You

    I Googled this subject and it said if your assessment period starts before the 6th April the increase will not showing until June. My Assessment period started on 1st April to 30th April. I have left a note in my journal just in case as I get very anxious. Is this correct? and I assume DWP still notify UC of increases to other benefits.
