When you claim Universal Credit and submit sick notes, you will be sent a UC50 to fill out. It usually takes around three months of submitting sick notes before you are sent a UC50, though work coaches can arrange for them to be sent out before this in some circumstances.
If you have limited capability for work, you can still claim Universal Credit but you will not receive any extra money.
You should take the following to your Universal Credit Work Capability Assessment: Any pills or medication you take. Any aids and appliances that you use. A copy of your Work Capability Assessment questionnaire. Any supporting evidence you have. A day-to-day diary of your life to highlight your condition.
Get evidence to send with the form. You can send medical evidence of your condition or disability along with the form. Medical evidence can give the DWP a better idea of how your condition affects your ability to work. You should send evidence if it supports what youre saying on the form.
Ask for the DWP to look again at their decision. This is called a mandatory reconsideration. Use our Work Capability Assessment Mandatory Reconsideration Tool to check what award you should have got and write a really good letter to the DWP that sets out your case.
