answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/09/2021 answer text <p>We carefully balance our duty to the taxpayer to recover overpayments, with support for claimants. Safeguards are in place to ensure deductions are manageable. From 12 April 2021, we further reduced the cap on deductions from Universal Credit awards to 25 per cent and lengthened the period from 12 to 24 months, meaning in effect someone can receive 25 payments over 24 months, giving them more flexibility over the payments of their Universal Credit award. This will also allow claimants to retain more of their award, giving additional financial security, and follows a previous change in October 2019 that reduced the cap from 40% to 30%.</p><p> </p><p>Customers can contact the Department if they are experiencing financial hardship to discuss a reduction in their rate of repayment, depending on their financial circumstances, whilst work coaches can also signpost claimants to other financial support.</p><p> </p><p>The information requested is provided in the attached spreadsheet.</p> answering member constituency Colchester answering member printed Will Quince question first answered 10/09/2021 12:50:22 question first ministerially corrected 15/10/2021 12:33:48 answering member 4423 label Biography information for Will Quince attachment 1 file name Spreadsheet 40869.xlsx title Spreadsheet previous answer version 20231 answering member constituency Colchester answering member printed Will Quince answering member 4423 label Biography information for Will Quince
