<p>Applications for a Universal Credit advance can be made in a number of ways: in
person, by telephone and also online. To identify and collate the total number of

to all Universal Credit claimants who need them as part of a package of support to
manage their transition to Universal Credit. Also, as promised last November, following
the Autumn Budget, we have now introduced new functionality for advances to be claimed
through a claimant’s online Universal Credit account.</p>
