Passport needed for UC by British Citizen
Someone told by JC that they needed a passport to claim UC, they do not have one and do not want me as Brit Cit. I have not seen anything tio clarify this so is it just an over zealous JC worker?
No requirement, certainly nothing in the regs. Passports are not a statutory requirement, so it cannot be insisted upon. DWP can, of course, ask for evidence of right to reside and so forth.
thanks, had been looking too but could not find anything.
