I have been paid of work due to ill health and have received my first UC payment which was £78 because I had a pay from my employer last month. I am due to be paid a weeks wage for every year I was employed will this affect my next payment? It should be roughly £3000

    HI @mary2310 and welcome to the community. A payment of £3000 should not affect your UC payments as long as your total savings do not exceed £6000. Do you have savings that might take you over the £6000 limit?
