If you’ve received a Universal Credit Migration Notice, one or more of your current benefits will end soon and, if you still need financial support, you will have to make a claim for Universal Credit instead.

You should make your claim for Universal Credit before the deadline date on your letter. If your letter does not have a deadline date, you don’t need to claim yet unless you want to.

If you need help moving to Universal Credit, Citizens Advice can support you. They can help you understand what your Migration Notice means for you and help you make your claim for Universal Credit.

Their advisers have access to both language and BSL interpreting services, and all their services are completely free of charge and confidential.

Call Citizens Advice for free on: 0800 1448 444, or visit: advicewestsussex.org.uk.
