Am i getting the correct amount of ESA? was created by Nostromo
hi im wondering if somebody could tell me if im getting the right amount of ESA,

ive been in the support group for many years, and receiving the enhanced/severe disability premiums and live alone.

i currently receive £430.20 a fortnight but if i look on the government website under "what you'll get" it says support group should be receiving £128.85 per week, plus the enhanced/severe premium £19.55/£76.40 per week should bring it to £449.6 a fortnight.

am i being underpaid by roughly £20? :(

Hi Nostromo

The difference could be between 2022 - 2023 figures and 2023 - 2024 figures.

Use a benefit calculator to see what you should be awarded; gov.uk/benefits-calculators if you still have any concerns then contact DWP and ask.
