I refer the Hon. Member to the response to Question 215614, answered on 6th February 2019.

The Department does not hold information regarding the number of Universal Credit claimants that are veterans.

The Department continues to consider opportunities to improve our understanding of those claiming Universal Credit, including ways in which we might identify claims from veterans.
