Universal Credit roll-out – has my area been moved over yet?
Need to know if Universal Credit has been rolled out in your area? If not, when will you be subject to Universal Credit? Search for your local area below, and find out now if you’re subject to Universal Credit.
According to Government literature (taken from here), the roll-out is subject to the following:
In May 2016 the Universal Credit full service for all claimant types began to rollout nationally. The following schedule was updated in March 2018 to coincide with the Written Ministerial Statement on delivering Welsh language capability within the full service and balancing resources more effectively within DWP. This schedule sets out the latest planning assumptions for sites that will transition to the Universal Credit full service . Rollout of the Universal Credit full service is due to complete in December 2018. After the rollout process has completed, DWP will then begin moving all remaining existing benefit claimants to the Universal Credit full service starting in 2019.
