Universal Credit

Universal Credit has replaced a range of benefits and tax credits for working-age residents who are on low income. Universal Credit is administered by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) at:

• Harlesden Jobcentre
• Wembley Jobcentre

Universal Credit is a single monthly benefit payment which will eventually replace:

• Income Support
• Income related Job Seeker’s Allowance
• Income related Employment Support Allowance
• Housing Benefit
• Working Tax Credit/Child Tax Credit

If you live with a partner, you will both receive a single payment.
