Universal credit and self employed income was created by Jane52
Hello

Due to transition from tax credits to universal credit on 20th May; am self employed. I am assuming DWP will look at my income , expenses, pension contributions from 20th May, monthly Does anyone know if this is correct? I receive a tax credit payment a few days beforehand. I am understanding the two to be separate.
Needing clarification of above to work out timing of money I pay into pension from earnings, minus expenses.
Also does anyone know UC amount that is relevent to get support with NHS dental treatment

Thank you for your help

Jane

Hi Jane

Your question is outside the remit of the forum, being self employed and claiming UC can be quite complex as the minimum income floor comes into play, we would advise you to seek help from your local Welfare Rights Organisation; advicelocal.uk the following link may give you some information; www.gov.uk/self-employment-and-universal-credit.

In regard to help with NHS costs and claiming UC, you may find this link useful; www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/help-with-health...ng-universal-credit/
