Anyone earning under £40,000 urged to check if they are missing out on benefit boost

Millions of people may be missing on a financial boost, with those earning under £40,000 potentially eligible for support.

Money Saving Expert (MSE) issued advice in their first weekly email of 2023, urging households under the income threshold to check as they could be eligible for an extra £500 per month in support.

The reminder comes after one money saver managed to boost their monthly income following Martin Lewis' site's advice. They said: "Thanks to a link I spotted in one of Martin's weekly emails, I discovered I was entitled to some universal credit to boost my income. I'm now receiving over £500/month extra - which is helping me a great deal", reports Edinburgh Live.
