Lower universal credit earnings threshold (the AET) for single parents

Petition Details

Many single parents are struggling to find more hours or new jobs that work around school holidays, resulting in pressure from the job centre with weekly phone calls / meetings. It is difficult to find holiday clubs for over 5’s in many areas which adds more pressure on the parent.

Additional Information

Administrative earnings threshold (AET) has risen significantly over the last 3 years:
2023 - £617
2024 - £892
2025 - £952!
Universal Credit Administrative Earnings Threshold (AET) keeps rising and so does cost of living! The cost of living is leaving many single parents struggling to make ends meet and falling into poverty.
