Non-Dependent Deductions

A client of mine has just been told, she says, that from October the NDD on her claim will change to a flat £68 per month, I thought this was for UC only? We are not in an area that can claim UC so makes little sense to me.

Can anyone clarify this?

Thanks.

I think it’s very likely that someone was reading from an old IDS timetable for UC (rather than something weird happening to HB NDDs.

I’ve heard the at least some of the nominally ‘October’ wave of six new pathfinders won’t actually see any UC claimants before the new year at the earliest.

Jon,

That seems to be most likely. Thanks for that.
