Hi, please may someone confirm if I am eligible for free prescriptions?

I'm due to get my first payment from UC on 20th March after having migrated from ESA support group.

I will be getting £809 which includes the standard allowance and Limited capability for work and work-related activity.

If I am eligible do I need to show proof and how would I do that, or do I just tick the U box on the prescription?

Any help would be appreciated, thank you for your time 🙏

    In your circumstances yes you qualify for free prescriptions.

    Tick the U box (or JSA if it is an old prescription form) and if asked be prepared to show your latest UC statement as proof which you can do via smartphone.
