Credit Council

The Universal Credit is managed by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and not by Birmingham City Council. Introduced in Birmingham between November 8, 2017 and February 14, 2018, it will be payable each month in installments and includes the cost of living (rent). When you have a mate, there's a one-month payout for both of you.

Where you have other grown-ups with you who are eligible for a service, you may make a separate claim in your own right, but a £70.06 per months discount may be deducted from your monthly fee for each grown-up, if any.... However, you will not be able to obtain assistance with your Universal Credit municipal taxes and will continue to have to request separate municipal taxes instead.
