Details
These experimental statistics contain data for the total number of people who are on Universal Credit up to 10 March 2022.
Read the background information and methodology note for guidance on these statistics, such as timeliness, uses, and procedures.
Interactive tools
Software used for the interactive map showing claimants at Jobcentre Plus office level is no longer supported. The interactive map has therefore been withdrawn and a replacement is currently under development. Once completed and launched, the upcoming interactive tool (Examine-a-Stat) will have improved functionality, in addition to interactive maps, to better meet a wider range of user needs, and will be available in due course.
Pre-release access
In addition to staff who are responsible for the production and quality assurance of the statistics, up to 24-hour pre-release access is provided to ministers and other officials. We publish the job titles and organisations of the people who have been granted up to 24-hour pre-release access to the latest Universal Credit statistics.
