in Employment and Support Allowance (ESA)
I'm in the support group of income based Esa. I also get enhanced for both parts of PIP. 
Am I entitled to the enhanced disability premium. I've had a look on the gov website and I think I am. Could anyone confirm if I'm correct please.

    In a previous thread you were given advice about New style ESA, which i believe is a fairly recent claim. See thread. https://forum.scope.org.uk/discussion/95343/stopping-work-and-esa/p1
    Your ESA isn't Income based. There's no disability premiums payable because it's New Style ESA.

    It all gets so confusing when I read info, my mind struggles to take it in. Thanks for confirming

    Yes it can be. New style ESA is a contributions based benefit only.
