Welfare benefits and tax credits handbook (23rd edition)

Written for claimants and their advisors, CPAG's annually updated Welfare and Benefits and Tax Credits Handbook is the definitive guide to the UK's social security system.

This new edition provides comprehensive information on your entitlement to benefits in 2021/22.

It includes the latest on universal credit and legacy benefits as well as the impacts of the ending of the UK's transition period from the EU (31/12/2020).

The latest rules, including on migrating to universal credit, work-related responsibilities and changes to the right to reside in the UK are covered in detail.

The edition also covers the continuing expansion of the Scottish social security system, with further details provided on young carer grants, child payments and child disability payments.

Tactical guidance and examples are included throughout to help you navigate an increasingly complex social security system.

The Handbook is also fully indexed and cross-referenced to law, regulations and official guidance as well as to court, tribunal and judicial decisions.
