Universal Credits? was created by Tracy
Hi,

I didn't know where or how to ask this question so sorry if this is the wrong place. I hear Universal Credits is being rolled out in my area this year I think. Is there anything on here about universal credits (other than the news), will you be dealing with it soon, or do you know the best place to get advice about who will be put on it first and if I will be re-assessed and have to go to assessments again, if it's likely to affect me doing my permitted work or if I will get less money? etc Thanks.

Your current ESA award will not be effected by your area moving to Universal Credit unless there are reasons that you need to make a new claim for the benefits covered under UC, however, at some time in the future (at least a couple of years), ESA claimants will be migrated to UC at which time you will need to review your PW .

We already provide guides for claiming "ESA" under UC, it's not our intention to provide support for any of the other benefits that will be covered as we do not support these currently.
