Budgeting Advance

[Channing_tatumfan455]

Hi,

 

I need some advice, I nearly paid all my Budgeting Advance and last payment is next month, just wondering if I will be able to apply for another once it's paid? it's for white goods (Fridge) - my circumstances is still the same as before and I am on Universal Credit if anyone is wondering. 

 

Any advice would be great thank you.

From what I'm reading online, I'm not sure if you can have more than one advance. Hopefully someone like Uncle Bulgaria will know.

 

If you can't get a loan, is there someone like Freegle near you? People offer things like white goods that they don't need any more.

I have been told on many websites that once the debt has been re-paid then you can apply for another but I am just making sure.

Why don't you ask the DWP?

You can have both a new claim advance and a budgeting advance running at the same time.

 

But you can only get a budgeting advance for white goods etc after 6 months of being on UC.
