Universal Credit – Parliamentary Written Answer

David Simpson: To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many claimants of universal credit have accepted an advance payment of that benefit.
Alok Sharma: Our latest national internal data for number of advances awarded indicates that, for eligible new claims to Universal Credit Full Service that were due a first payment in January 2018, 60% received either a ‘new claim’ or ‘benefit transfer’ advance.
