Hi Gail
There is no time table yet, at present there are 4 areas where they are testing and learning, this is called the discovery phase.
The 'discovery phase' started in Bolton and Medway on 9th May, Initially, 500 claimants were selected: 250 in Bolton and 250 in Medway. The DWP have recently confirmed that they would be issuing further migration notices in Bolton and Medway, on a similar scale to the initial test to enable them to test an alternative version of the migration notice.
The DWP also announced that 'In addition to this further work in Bolton and Medway, we also plan to commence work in Cornwall - specifically in Truro and Falmouth - to initially invite 250 claimants to move to universal credit from the 25th July, in order to test our approach in a different type of location.'
If you have signed up for B&W free news letter, then we will let you know when we have more information.
