My UC application. Worried 😟 was created by Cora's mum.
Hi all.
I submitted my Application this week. In doing so I wrote that I am unable to work due to chronic health reasons.. regardless I have a first commitments interview soon. I am not physically able to work and have made huge financial compromises to survive whilst not working for past few years. I'm worried I'll be forced into work. I appreciate there is a Work Capability pathway. I would sooner be put on this.

I have extensive medical records. Blue badge and receive full PIP for both elements. If forced to work - which I can't, this would jeopardise my PIP.

Please advise.
Thanks 🙏

Hi Cora's mum

Here is a link to the Citizens Advice guide on claiming Universal Credit with a health condition.

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems
