Closed petition: Stop all Universal Credit Reviews and Bank Statement requests

Closed on

We believe it is an invasion of privacy to have to provide several months of bank statements and other documents to obtain Universal Credit. We think that if a benefit claimant is breaking the law, this should be charged as an offence and proven in court.
