Thanks David. I'd love every one of those 8000!

So there's no way to do any sort of dummy run of the process for transferring to UC in advance of starting an actual submission?

Here is a step by step guide to making a new UC claim from the DWP.



Hope this helps.

Thanks. The video was published 9months ago, and shows passport and driving license as online verification methods. But the govt article doesn't show driving license and was updated in May 2024:
www.gov.uk/guidance/how-to-verify-your-i...for-universal-credit
So is the video up to date?

Hi Swiftness9480

I cannot speak for the DWP but one would hope that they would withdraw content that was no longer accurate. The best that you can do is to contact the UC Managed Migration helpline.
