This session aims to offer a forum for attendees to ask questions relating to UC and housing, to our specialist panel.

Derry/Londonderry - 5 June 2018

Belfast - 12 June 2018

Universal Credit (UC) is being introduced on a phased geographical basis across Northern Ireland between September 2017 to December 2018.

When introduced in an area, claimants will no longer be able to make a new claim to the benefits being replaced, and will need to claim UC. People experiencing a change of circumstances during this “roll out” period will also need to apply for UC. The managed migration of all claimants is scheduled for July 2019 – July 2022.

UC affects tenants and landlords across all tenures, it also impacts owner occupiers.

This session provides a fantastic opportunity to have any housing related UC questions answered by an expert team. It will also offer a platform to engage with other housing professionals and enhance your understanding of the emerging issues and impacts.

By the end of the session you will have a specialist understanding of the impacts of UC.
