Martin Lewis has issued an urgent message to any households earning under £40,000 to check their eligibility for Universal Credit.
The money-saving expert claimed that a lot of people could be missing out on the extra cash. He advised that using a simple benefit calculator could provide a clearer picture of whether someone is entitled to benefits or not.
While delivering evidence to the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) sub-committee on Online Harms and Disinformation, Martin highlighted that not everyone earning less than £40k will get Universal Credit, but there is still no harm in checking, Liverpool Echo reports.
