ESA to UC payments monthly or 2 weekly was created by Vicks123
Hello, just needed clarity, that rather than get the UC monthly, ( got the migration notice but havnt completed it yet) if I ask for it every 2 weeks like ESA was paid, would it be the same amount 2 weekly or with the month having 30-31 days would it change to different amounts?
Secondly, in ESA we used to get an extra payment if I took the 2 weekly option would there still be an extra payment in the year?
Any replies would be appreciated.

Hi S123
You will not get an extra payment. You can request fortnightly payments of UC. This is called an APA ( alternative payment arrangement ). You have to meet certain criteria to get this. You can also ask for a direct payment to a landlord.
