hi, I’m hoping people can advise please. I’m so worried about the letter I’ve received and how this is going to affect my benefits.

I am on old style ESA support group which should been reassessed last year but never was.

I also get pip higher rate both elements. I get child tax credits and child benefit and housing benefit and council tax benefit.

I am so worried about being reassessed and being found I have to work as I would just not cope with this. Does anyone know if I will automatically get the equivalent of the old style esa support group in my universal credit or do I have to reapply and get reassessed for this? Also does my pip stop and child benefit?

Also does anyone know if I will get back dated for the time period they say I will. It get any money for so say 5 weeks do they backdate to the start of the claim

I want to try and get as much information before I apply for the UC so hoping some people could kindly give advice

many thanks
