You may be able to claim Universal Credit after losing your job, depending on your income, savings, housing and household circumstances. If you already receive Universal Credit, report the end of your employment through your online account; if not, check the eligibility rules and apply on GOV.UK. Your final wages, holiday pay or notice pay may affect the assessment period in which they are received, while redundancy payments are usually treated as capital. Savings and other capital can affect entitlement, so use the official calculator or GOV.UK guidance for your circumstances.
