Complex Needs
KEY FACTS:

  • The DWP should offer additional support to claimants with 'complex needs' - click on the link below for definition.

  • This could be in connection with making a claim, maintaining a claim, the claimant commitment, attending interviews etc.

  • It is important that claimants explain any difficulties they have to DWP staff - see Standard Letter UC G4. (Note - the claimant should make this request through their on line UC account).

  • Complex needs should be recorded on the Claimant Profile - which is visible to Work Coaches, Case Managers and other staff. And the DWP can use 'pinned notes' to highlight complex needs on the Claimant Profile.
