	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/02/2020 answer text <p>Information surrounding Universal Credit (UC) claim closure reasons and volumes for the last 24 months of available data are shown in the attached tables.</p><p> </p><p>Monthly assessment periods align to the way the majority of employees are paid and also allows UC to be adjusted each month. This means that if a claimant’s income falls, they will not have to wait several months for a rise in their UC.</p><p> </p><p>If a claimant’s earnings are sufficient enough in an assessment period to reach and/or exceed their nil earning threshold, their UC claim will be closed. Should the claimant then choose to reclaim, a claimant only has to update or confirm their information, rather than making a full new UC claim. This process allows claimants to return quickly and easily to UC by minimising the administrative burden on them.</p> answering member constituency Colchester answering member printed Will Quince question first answered 27/02/2020 18:04:29 answering member 4423 label Biography information for Will Quince attachment 1 file name PQ 20004 - Claim Closure (table).docx title claim closure reasons and volumes
