Hi. Looking for some advice please. I am currently being ill health retired from work and I’m expecting a lump sum payment from my employer. I will be calming ESA and UC. At the moment I have a debt management plan setup with just over £10000 left to pay to it. If I clear this with part of my lump sum would the DWP see this as spending to try and bring my savings down to claim full benefit amounts. At the moment I am paying £174 per month to the debt plan. Any help is greatly appreciated thanks.
