Universal credit and ESA / PIP was created by Orangeblossom
I understand people on tax credits are being moved over to universal credit between 2019 and 2022.
I thought I saw something on here about people on ESA being moved over last, but can't find it!
Can anyone confirm that please. Thanks.

I haven't seen any confirmed dates for ESA and any plans that have been announced may be optimistic given how far the project is behind already.
ESA transfers will require primary legislation to be enacted to define the rules of the transfer.

Ok Thanks Gordon. I know people already on tax credits, are being transferred from 2019 while new claims are being processed at present in some areas. Will just have to wait and see I suppose. I know there is meant to be 'transitional protection' for those on tax credits.
