Make sure you understand what will be required of you in respect of managing the UC claim online before deciding to do this. If you also receive Housing Benefit or Tax Credits these will also stop if you apply for UC. There is no going back once UC is applied for.

Getting advice is clearly what you need to do, as suggested, because you are going round in circles in your various threads on the forum.
When getting advice please ask them to explain to you how a UC claim is managed and what you will be expected to do.Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK. -
