    You should allow up to a couple of weeks. If you haven’t received it by then you should ring them again. 

    Has your ESA been suspended in the meantime?
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    No...hasnt been suspended....my support worker told them my partner has funds over £16k and shes earning over the permitted amount to claim carers allowance for me...but an ESA payment still went into my account on the friday. I dont really want the hassle of overpayments .Thanks

    If all of your ESA is Income Related then I’d advise you to ring them again to report the changes. I’m surprised if it’s all income Related that it hasn’t been suspended or even stopped completely.
