I was wandering if someone could clarify this, i am under 25 and have just made a new claim for ESA i currently get DLA HRC AND LRM, will i just be paid the basic 53.00 a week in the assesment phase or will i also get the premiums added due to me having DLA in assesment phase.

Thanks

As I understand it, you should be eligible to receive the Ehanced Disability Premium even though you are only receiving the Assessment rate.
