- If you have had a letter from the DWP telling you to claim UC by the certain date, this is called Managed Migration Letter. Your legacy benefits (Tax Credits, HB, irESA, ibJSA, IS) will stop after the deadline date …..
I’m currently receiving ESA supported group and today I received the migration notice to move to UNI so is that mean I have to do new medical assessment ??? Because my medical situation it’s for life and now even worse . Thanks for your help
@@mylovesongsmami7415 Hello 🙂The answer is ‚no’ - if you are in receipt of ESA in a support group, you don’t have to undergo a Work Capability Assessment within UC. Moreover, you are likely to have a LCWRA (Limited Capacity for Work and Work Related Activity) automatically, which means an extra element- LCWRA (disability) element will be paid within UC and that will give you extra £416.19 a month. Apart from that- you are likely to be put in ‚no work related requirements group’, which means you don’t have to do anything to prepare or look for work.
@@mylovesongsmami7415 please keep in mind - if you are in receipt of income related ESA, that ‚legacy benefit’ will stop 2 weeks after you claim UC. UC was put in place to replace 6 legacy benefit and that includes irESA.
