Have Your Circumstances Changed?

A change in your personal or financial circumstances could affect your entitlement to benefits.

You may now be eligible to apply for a new benefit, or you may need to inform the relevant department about a change to your existing claim. Failing to report changes can sometimes lead to overpayments or delays — so it’s important to get the right advice.

If you’ve experienced a change and aren’t sure what it means for you, contact Upper Springfield Advice for guidance and a full benefit check.

📞 Call us on 028 9590 8668

We’re here to help.
