Universal Credit
If you're on a low income or you're out of work, you might be able to claim Universal Credit to boost your income.
Income Support
Income Support is a benefit to help people on a low income. It's no longer possible to make a new claim for it – but you may be eligible for Universal Credit instead.
If you already claim Income Support, you can continue to do so, as long as you satisfy the entitlement conditions. However, you'll eventually be moved to Universal Credit.
