    Don't worry, The only problem is the post which is terrible, I'm waiting for my bank card which the old one expired and the one they sent out not come ,so they cancelled that and reissued another one. I probably have to go to the sorting office to see if it's there on Monday as it takes 5 days, they are going to deliver alternative days I think I read,

    Hi I am just wondering if someone could advise me. I’m in the migration phase ( I’ve completed the UC application due to find out what I will be paid on Monday 11th August.) I found out during this process that I receive contribution based ESA which is continuing each fortnight as well as income related. I’m in the support group and received sdp also. I thought it was just income related.i am very worried what amount UC will be paying me. I’ve just had a letter from ESA saying I will be moved to New Style ESA and will need to attend a meeting to see if I’m still unable to work. This is completely stressing me out as I thought you didn’t have to attend wca during the migration. This whole process has caused me to spiral due to my anxiety and now I’m dreading the post everyday in case they are forcing me to a meeting I can’t attend. Any help I’d be extremely grateful .

    @helen2468

    You won't lose any money, the amounts are exactly the same.

    Excluding other elements you may be entitled to such as Transitional Protection, UC LCWRA (the UC equivalent of ESA Support Group) & Support Group pay £823.41.

    Instead of getting £823.41 UC, you will get £609.05 a month from New Style ESA, and £214.36 from UC.

    Plus Transitional Protection, and any Housing Element if applicable.

    Please read through these threads for information and reassurance.
