UC Live service to full service claimants

I understand that claimants already on UC in live service areas will have to “reclaim” UC when area goes full service (after 3 months or so) and that they will have to attend another initial appt at JCP to verify their identity.

Does anyone know if they have to provide verification of housing costs or other income/savings etc again? Also will there be a shorter version of online claim or is it exactly the same? Will they be told to reclaim via journal or in writing?
Thanks
