Premiums for PIP, ESA Support group Enhanced PIP

Gordon....Following on from the other members thread which I asked this below and diden't want to keep hijacking it?

So decided to start this thread.

Do I have to claim it or does it get added automatically to my ESA. I also live on my own and no one looks after me or gets paid either to care. Thanks in advance.

Contact the ESA office dealing with your claim, they should have contacted you about this. From your post you should be entitled to the Enhanced Disability Premium as well.

OK following on Gordon, I'm in the ESA Support group and do get the Enhanced premium for which I always have been getting.

But now moved to PIP Enhanced on both for ongoing period?

As I was on DLA low rate care I know I diden't qualify for the Severe disability Allowance.

Now just moved to PIP Enhanced daily living from DLA which changes over from the 6th December, first payment under PIP is due in to my account on 2nd January 2018.
As we know it's 4weels in arrears.

I understand the Severe disablement Allowance gets added to ESA. So not sure what or which way to approach this as my ESA Support group is 3 and a half years in?.

aIl I know i they send a form called IS10 to fill in for which I do qualify for.

Any advice would be grateful. Thanks as always.

Oh, Gordon my friend have you been taking my pills lol, I'm also confused surrounding this?

Do I have to ask for the Severe Disabilty premium to be added to my IR ESA Support group and now as receiving PIP Enhanced daily living as above I believe I'm entitled to it I don't know if I have to chase for it or it's added to ESA. I have heard they send a form as part of carers Allowance as I live on my own. See the form here www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/243895/re...0Document%20IS10.pdf

As I stated on the other topic you have about this, you need to contact the DWP office dealing with your ESA. You should be able to complete the IS10 over the phone.

Thanks, I hate phoning them people?
Funny you say that Gordon, Ive just phoned them and filled it in the IS10 in over the phone?
Two minds think alike. I also did ask about my ESA review as I was on 3 years but he diden't give a date just said I was in the support group for 3 there run out in April 17.

Gordon got my letter within 4 days stating the extra SDA premium is added from the 2nd December it's been added to the ESA it will certainly help.

Thanks.
