My 365 day NI contributions based ESA work-related finishes in September.
In the meantime, I have had to sell my house and so have capital which takes me over the £16K savings limit. However, when I buy another house, I will be back to zero savings and income only from my PIP award until 2018.
Will I then be able to apply again for ESA income based?
I won my ESA tribunal which recommends I am not reassessed until 2018.
It should be possible to have the proceeds from your house disregarded for at least 26 weeks and longer if you have problems finding a new one, this should allow you to claim Income Related ESA if you meet the other criteria. You will need to provide documentation of the sale.
