Universal ID review appointment was created by ambofoster
Wonder if anyone can help explain what this is about. Received on UC today had to go on to do list and acknowledge receipt. It’s saying we have to attend job centre for ID reviews?? If we don’t attend may affect the UC payment. My husband band I claim jointly but I’m on ESA CB
Many thanks for any help x

Hello Anne,

As part of the claim review, we will need you to attend a job centre appointment to have your identity verified face to face.

I will contact your job centre who will arrange the date and time of the appointment as well as advise you what you can bring in to help verify your identity.

Please let us know if the date and time is not suitable for you once it has been booked.

It is important that you attend this appointment to verify your identity, or it may affect your payments.

Send us a journal message if you want to discuss the review.

Kind regards

Cate

Hi ambofoster,

This is a standard request from the UC Review team. As Cate says you can send a UC journal message back to them if you are worried. But you need to attend or else risk UC being temporarily suspended. If you have what they term " good cause " for not attending the DWP could send a visiting officer to your home instead.

Hope this helps,
David
