# UK Benefit Forms Structured Dataset
|
| 20 |
+
|
| 21 |
+
A structured dataset of 120 UK government benefit and legal forms, extracted and processed for use in AI-assisted form-filling applications. Built as part of the [EasyClaimAI](https://easyclaimai.co.uk) project.
|
| 22 |
+
|
| 23 |
+
## Why This Dataset Exists
|
| 24 |
+
|
| 25 |
+
Millions of people in the UK struggle with complex government forms — benefit claims, legal applications, pension forms. The language is dense, the guidance is buried, and mistakes can cost people money or delay vital support.
|
| 26 |
+
|
| 27 |
+
This dataset was created to train AI models that can genuinely help people understand and complete these forms accurately — particularly those with limited literacy, disabilities, or who simply find the bureaucratic language overwhelming.
|
| 28 |
+
|
| 29 |
+
## Dataset Structure

| 111 |
+
```python
|
| 112 |
+
from datasets import load_dataset
|
| 113 |
+
|
| 114 |
+
# Load form questions
|
| 115 |
+
ds = load_dataset("Voidreaper2026/uk-benefit-forms-structured", "form")
|
| 116 |
+
|
| 117 |
+
# Load guidance documents
|

+
|
| 121 |
+
## How to Help
|
| 122 |
+
|
| 123 |
+
This dataset is a starting point. There are gaps:
|
| 124 |
+
|
| 125 |
+
- Some forms have `UNKNOWN` as the `form_id` — if you can identify them from the question text, please open an issue
|
| 126 |
+
- Welsh language forms were excluded — contributions for Welsh forms welcome
|
| 127 |
+
- Some guidance notes are sparse — improvements to the extraction pipeline welcome
|
| 128 |
+
- Additional UK government forms not yet included — particularly Universal Credit, PIP, ESA full forms
|
| 129 |
+
|
| 130 |
+
If you work in welfare rights, benefits advice, or government services and want to contribute or use this dataset, please get in touch via the dataset repository.
|
| 131 |
+
