Hi all,

I am in the process of migrating from ESA to UC. I will be doing the application in mid April. I closed a current account today which isn't my main account, will I have to declare this to UC or does it not matter?

The reason I have closed it is because I wanted to consolidate my accounts to make it all easier. To clarify, no large sums of money were ever in this account. I have the last month of bank statements for the account.

Thanks in advance for your help

Hi Kuju2

No, you don't have to inform the DWP of closing a bank account as long as it's not the one the Benefits are going into.
