Universal Credit claimants don't get a £10 Xmas bonus (unless they also get a benefit that does give rise to a bonus).
https://www.gov.uk/christmas-bonus/eligibility
Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK. -
ShieldsRED said:but like calcotti mentioned, you have to claim UC plus one of the other benefits listed, such as PIP.
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -
ShieldsRED said:hI @poppy123456 - I've just realised thats pretty much what you've said I think I've understood it wrong from what it's read.
Yes, you've misunderstood it. If someone is just claiming UC they will not be entitled to the bonus. PIP/State pension/Carers allowance/DLA etc etc all qualify you.

Your partner is entitled to the £10 because they claim PIP. You're not entitled to it because of your UC claim because this doesn't entitle you to it. It can be paid anytime throughout this month. https://www.gov.uk/christmas-bonus/eligibility

Thank you Poppy, very quick reply
I know im not entitled, was just wondering if my partner was because i work full time -
You working doesn't affect it. Your partner claims PIP which is why they are entitled to it.

Dose this make sense?If someone claims PIP then the £10 is likely to be paid as a separate payment. My daughter claims both PIP and UC and she received hers a couple of days ago as a separate payment.
If they claim other benefits such as ESA/JSA or carers allowance then it could be paid in with your usual payments.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please.

Only if they receive other benefits as well like PIP/DLA/Carers allowance.
