Are you and were you eligible for Income Related ESA?

ESA(IR) is dependant on your household income, your savings and assets, and any hours that your partner works. See

Asset and savings rule for ESA(IR)

24 hour work rule for ESA(IR)

It will say which group you are in on your Decision Letter and the Entitlement Letters that are sent out each year.

So you are potentially eligible for the Enhanced Disability Premium due to your being in the SG, do you know if you are receiving this, it is described as the Disability Income Guarantee in the Entitlement letter.
