UNIVERSAL CREDIT AND PENSIONS KEY CHANGES

UNIVERSAL CREDIT AND PENSIONS KEY CHANGES after 17th of November 2022.
People claiming Universal Credit could see their payments rise by as much as £52 a month if expected plans are put in place next week.
Benefits, including Universal Credit, and pensions are expected to rise 10 per cent in line with inflation if Rishi Sunak bows to increasing pressure ahead of next week’s Autumn Statement. The previous prime minister, Liz Truss, said pensions would increase in line with inflation, but Rishi Sunak has not confirmed this. The Prime Minister has made it clear that the Government faces “difficult decisions” to fix the economic turmoil triggered by Liz Truss’s doomed spell in No10.
