Universal Credit national expansion – Tranches Three and Four On 16 February 2015 the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) began the national expansion of Universal Credit to the remaining areas across Great Britain following the successful expansion to the North West of during 2014.

In addition to the already published roll out schedules for Tranches One and Two, DWP can now provide planning assumptions for the third and fourth tranches of national expansion to local authorities and jobcentre areas.

Universal Credit will roll out to new claims from single people, who would otherwise have been eligible for Jobseeker’s Allowance, including those with existing Housing Benefit and Working Tax Credit claims.

The sites listed in the planning assumptions for Tranches Three and Four will begin to deliver Universal Credit between September 2015 and April 2016. We are committed to working closely with local authorities before confirming or announcing further details about the roll out schedule.

The two lists are in alphabetical order by local authority.
