Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether any applicant in receipt of universal credit who was previously in receipt of legacy benefits has successfully reapplied for universal credit.
Yes - claimants who were previously in receipt of legacy benefits who migrated to and were awarded Universal Credit can re-apply for Universal Credit if that award has ended. Universal Credit will then be re-awarded if they meet the conditions of entitlement.
