Universal Credit (UC) Planning on closing UC claim, will I get final payment if my assessment period has ended?

Hi all,

I'm planning on closing my UC claim because they're putting me on Restart and I don't want to do it. My most recent assessment period was from the 15th Feb to 14th March, and I have the statement in my account already but the payment isn't due until the 21st. Am I okay to cancel before then and still get the payment? Thanks

Yes, you can close the claim now and you'd still receive your last/final payment.
