Please note: There are a couple of areas that we are still awaiting clarification on from DWP and 
Anyone attending this webinar will be contacted directly with any updates.

 

 Topics include:

- A deep dive into how the Transitional Element is worked out

- How the 'Indicative UC Amount' works differently to a normal UC assessment

- Why a Tax Credit-only claimant will not have a HCE in their 'Indicative UC Amount' and the implications
