The Government is moving people who are currently claiming legacy benefits such as tax credits, Jobseekers Allowance, Income Support and Housing benefit etc onto Universal Credit. This is called Universal Credit Managed Migration.
You don’t need to do anything until you have received a Universal Credit ‘Migration Notice’ (letter) from the DWP.
The first roll out will only affect people claiming Working Tax Credits and Child Tax Credits.
