UNIVERSAL CREDIT AND GETTING MARRIED was created by QuantamHat
Hello,
I am getting married, soon but my husband and I will continue to maintain completely separate households and will not live together as we’re not young and set in our ways.
I need to report my marriage to Universal Credit, but I’m unsure which option on the UC website I should select.
I don't want to select “living with a partner” if that implies that we are living together as we have not, are not and won’t be.
Can you advise which change-of-circumstances option I should use to report getting married when the spouses continue to live in separate households?
Thank you

Hi QuantamHat

I would in your situation send a Journal message in the first instance describing your circumstances. Don't choose the " chocolate teapot" option of Message for Work Coach but choose as recipient for your message A Payment and in that way it will be routed to your Universal Credit Case Manager.

Let us know how you get on.
