UC payment after smp finishes?

My maternity pay has ended and was just wondering if Universal credit will pay me more? Do I have to tell them I no longer get SMP or do they automatically know that I won’t get paid?

They know as your employer will send them your earnings of £0 it’s all automatically done.

You UC payment will likely increase, and they should see how much you’ve been paid via HMRC so you don’t have to tell them (but I’d double check your statement to make sure it’s correct)

And it will increase also

You should be able to tell from current statements. It should say what your entitlement is, then what you’re currently deducted due to SMP.
