Query regarding an occupational pension

Query regarding an occupational pension was created by Andy
Help needed, as I am about to receive my occupational pension at age 60

I currently receive Income related ESA, in the Support Gp and receive the severe disability premiums. This gives me a total of £225.45

My lump sum is under the £6,000 so that is no problem.

The weekly amount for my occupational pension is £122. Am I right in thinking that this whole amount will be deducted from my ESA?

Many thanks in advance

Hi Andy

You are correct in your thinking, as you are in receipt of a means tested benefit then any income you receive from your occupational pension is taken £ for £ from your IR ESA.
