How are the changes going to affect you?

The UK Government is making major changes to the benefits system. If you are of working age (16-64) and claim benefits, then you may be affected.

You might have to apply for a new type of benefit or you might get less money than you did before.  We want to help you find information and advice that will help you to plan ahead and take steps to prepare.

Some of the changes have already taken place but the biggest changes begin in April 2013. Click on the links below or in the QUICKLINKS section for more details.
