I am currently migrating to UC from irESA. Am I right in that I will still get contributions ESA paid by ESA every 2 weeks? Or are all payments now done through my UC?
I'm just trying to work out how much I should be getting.
Yes you will get fortnightly payments of Contributions Based ESA and a top up of UC monthly. Your ESA will be called New Style ESA. It is basically the same thing but you will have to accept a basic claimant commitment over the phone.
