Hello,, I phoned Citizen Advice for help from the migration from ESA to UC. They said that if I were on the Incapacity Benefits which changed to ESA I should be on, IR and contribution based ESA, that I should ring the Dwp and find out. I rung them and they said I get Contribution and IR esa.
I’d like to know when I move over to UC would that make a difference and would I still get the same amount? I have been in the support group, would I still get the equivalent to support group? Also would I need to go into the Job Centre or can I still do all the formalities from the home and telephone? In regards to the signing of commitments is there anything I should be aware of of? Any help and advice is appreciated
I think you are best advised to phone Citizens Advice Help to Claim and their phone number is on page 2 or your Migration letter. Here are a couple of recommendations from our Forum members--
