So I’ll not earned nothing in 10 days and my cut of date for September pay is about 28th of this month, I’m gonna probably end up with less then 2 weeks money for next month, I’ve paid my Iva this month but gonna be stuggling next month, I did read I can Caim something from universal credit if I’ve got Covid to make up my money . I only need one payment to make up my money for next month. Would you advice to me apply? I can online

UC can be awkward to deal with and slow to respond. If I were in your position I would speak to my IP and request a payment break for the month, so you need pay nothing this month. The 'missed payment' will be added back on the end of your IVA.

I made a claim and explained why I need it, let’s see what happens
