The map shows the areas where Universal Credit can be claimed by different claimant groups by the end of July 2018. Click on the map to view the relevant postcodes and start dates. Areas moving to Universal Credit during May to July 2018 are outlined in grey.
Note: on 7 June the government announced a number of changes to UC (in particular, a new rule will divert claimants currently receipt of a severe disability premium away from UC during the rollout period.) However, these changes are not expected to take effect until the autumn.Note: claimants with three or more dependent children cannot new claim for Universal Credit - they will have to claim 'legacy' benefits instead - this will apply until 31 January 2019. Families with three or more children already on Universal Credit will remain on UC. UC full service in parts of North Kensington ( postcodes W8,W11, W10 5,W10 6 and W10 9 ) has been postponed until 12 December 2018. UC is also available in certain specified postcodes in Northern Ireland - these areas are not covered by this map.
