Stuck on a UC question
Hi all,
I'm in the process of doing the UC online but confused with one question:
Children who live with youYou can only apply for children who are:
living with you
under 20 years old
I have a 11 year old son who lives with me
I have a 19 year old son who lives with me but is in full time work
Do i put both are living with me, I'm just confused with putting my 19 year old as we don't receive any form of benefits for him?
Sorry, not the best when it comes to doing these forms

Hello @Denny1972
It isn’t particularly clear, is it? They don’t make these things easy.
You should report your 19-year-old son as another person living with you, not as a child. In the children and dependents section, you would only include your 11-year-old. Then, in the "other people living with you" section, you can add details about your older son.
If your 19-year-old were in full-time, non-advanced education, you could include him as a child and receive an additional amount for him, but that doesn’t apply in your situation.
I hope that helps.

That’s irrelevant to the question asked.

Thanks all for your replies.
All done but i didn't have enough paperwork to complete my identity, all i had was a passport and it required two forms of identity so now it says "We will call you" on my to-do-list.

I was asking because if it's soon there might be a chance but if not then there might be less than a chance.
