Universal Credit: Armed Forces
(asked on 20th November 2023) - View Source
Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many households with at least one member serving in the armed forces are claiming Universal Credit.
This question was answered on 28th November 2023
The information requested is not available. We do not know the total number of currently serving armed forces personnel who are claiming UC.
We have been collecting information, on those that have identified themselves as serving or have served, since April 2021, but we do not yet have enough responses to accurately estimate the total number.
