Universal Credit: National Insurance Credits
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether people on Universal Credit receive National Insurance Contribution credits.
Answered by Torsten Bell
Class 3 National Insurance (NI) Credits are awarded to those in receipt of Universal Credit (UC). Where UC recipients are also in work or are entitled to NI credits on other grounds, His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs will undertake any relevant reconciliation where a mixture of credits have been received.
