baffled about LCWRA payment dates, conflicting info from advisors!

It can be sent as a screenshot through email. LCWRA will be included from the start of your claim.

You're very welcome.

Many people have overpayments for Tax credits when they migrate to UC. This is because tax credits is based on your circumstances in the previous tax year. This is one good thing about UC and there's less chance of there ever being any overpayments because entitlement is calculated month to month.

Your Tax credits debt will be passed to DWP and they will take the overpayment from your UC payments until it's paid back. If you disagree with the overpayment then you should contact HMRC.

They usually set a percentage of your standard allowance automatically, based on whether you or a partner on your claim have any earnings. The percentage can be a maximum of 25% of your standard allowance. However, you can request that Debt Management set the repayment amount to a specific figure, with the lowest usually being £5 per month. If the repayments would cause significant hardship, they may be able to delay them for a period of time.

If you contact DWP Debt Management, they will be able to discuss the repayment amount with you.
