Universal Credit Estimator

Get a rough monthly estimate of your Universal Credit entitlement using the current 2025/26 rates. This does not include housing cost element (LHA) as that depends on your area.

Disclaimer

This is a guide only, not advice. UC depends on many factors including childcare costs, housing element, and sanctions. Always check your actual journal and seek advice from Citizens Advice or a benefits specialist.

The two-child limit applies to children born on or after 6 April 2017 (some exceptions apply).

Enter 0 if not currently working. Include partner's earnings if a couple.
