This is very straightforward but I cant seem to find the relevant regs in the morass of amendments

If a cl has a two week run on of IS when they start their UC claim is it counted as unearned income for UC and deducted from the first UC payment?

There are no regs on this!

There is a list in the regs here of all unearned income which counts for UC, and IS is not included in that. (Reg 10 of the UC(TP) Regs doesn’t apply here.)
