• Income-based Job Seeker's Allowance
• Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
• Income Support
• Housing Benefit
• Child Tax Credit
• Working Tax Credit​

It is important that you understand what Universal Credit will mean for you and the steps you'll need to take, so we have produced a short guide and claimant journey map to help you.
