In many cases where full payment is not made on time, it is due to unresolved issues such as: claimants not accepting their Claimant Commitment or passing identity checks, or having outstanding verification issues, such as housing costs and self-employed earnings.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>Verification is a necessary part of any benefits system, and taxpayers expect these measures to be in place; we must make sure we are paying the right people the right amount. We have taken steps to improve verification processes. For example, we have listened to feedback and built processes into the system to make it easier and quicker for people to verify their housing costs, for example through the landlord portal.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>Whilst their verification is on-going, many claimants receive a part payment for those elements of the claim that have been resolved. We published an ad hoc statistical release on 9 July which showed, for new claims due a payment in February 2018, 95% were paid in full within five weeks of the payment due date.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>Advances are available to provide financial support until the first payment and can now be repaid over a course of 12 months and can consist of up to 100 per cent of the indicative monthly award. We have also abolished waiting days and now provide 2 weeks of housing support to claimants moving to Universal Credit from Housing Benefit.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>If a claim has been delayed due to error, DWP can consider awarding an ex-gratia payment, as set out in the Financial Redress for Maladministration guide, available on gov.uk<\/p>"}
