There are a few situations where a second property would be disregarded. Unless your friends situation fits into one of those (not receiving rent isn't one of them) he won't be entitled to UC due to the second property.

Hello kimmy87
I am not understanding what you said about second property are you saying that to get universal credit second property will be disregarded if there is no rented property? I searched in benefit calculater if i put second property then its says he wont be getting universal credit ?

If someone has a second property there are a few situations where it is disregarded when calculating capital for UC (a second property is classed as capital).
Otherwise it is not disregarded and means no entitlement to UC.
Whether there is a rental income from the property is irrelevant.

How can someone work when in pain
0 -
lots of people work in pain it depends on your pain tolerance and willpower

I've worked and studied when in severe pain but there can come a time when pain and other disabling symptoms are just too much.
1 -
some people need to be encouraged to work in pain because if they don't then they will end up doing nothing
2 -
My chronic pain is consistent, whether I am at home or in the office. Since it doesn't vary much based on location, I find it beneficial to continue working. It helps me maintain my financial independence and provides me with a sense of purpose.

I'm the same @MW123 I'd much rather keep myself busy when I'm in constant pain. Working certainly helps my mental health too.
But I'm very lucky to have a workplace where disabilities are understood and adjustments are put in place. I know many workplaces wont be the same and every person is different.

Hi
Kimmy87
I am having difficulty understanding the link below if you can please explain to me at the bottom where it says property disregarded close relative who has limited capability for work does that mean that if my friends has 2 property and they both joint claim in uc and they each of them leave in both property will they get universal credit? Thank you

do you not think you answered your own question when you put in the 2 houses in the form and the answer was no entitlement to uc

I did not say my friends will apply for state benefit he just wanted to know how it works because previously tax credit did give benefit and he doesnt know how uc works and the link that is been given by kimmy87 we wanted to know what it is explaining

Hi
He doesnt get tax credit but he wants to know how uc works before he gets in uc he just wanted know the link you gave is that saying that if there is second property and first house that he lives in main home and other house for his family to lives in and the link you sent to me does it say that if friend or family lives there it should be ok? Thanks
0 -
No the link doesn't say if a friend or family member lives there it is okay.
It has to be a close family member (parent, parent-in-law, son, son-in-law, daughter, daughter-in-law, step-parent, step-son, step-daughter, brother, sister)
AND
The family member has to be state pension age or be receiving ESA Work Related Activity Group/Support Group or LCW/LCWRA with Universal Credit.
