answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/07/2019 answer text <p>Advances are in place to ensure those in genuine need are able to receive financial support. They are not additional money: they are simply an advance of entitlement.</p><p> </p><p>Either member of a couple can apply for an advance payment on behalf of the couple. Since both claimants have a joint and individual liability for the repayment of the advance, they are given written notice at the time of taking out the advance, via their Universal Credit (UC) journal, which includes the amount of the advance and of their liability to repay the advance. They will also be alerted to this UC Journal entry.</p> answering member constituency Reading West answering member printed Alok Sharma question first answered 08/07/2019 16:56:29 answering member 4014 label Biography information for Sir Alok Sharma
