Universal Credit claimants who are also parents will receive more money in just a few weeks' time.
From June 28, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) will raise the maximum amount that parents on Universal Credit can claim back monthly for their childcare costs. The amount parents can claim back will rise to £951 for one child and £1,630 for two or more children.
This is up from the previous caps of £646 for one child or £1,108 for two or more children, the Mirror reports.
