Richardson44

hi my husband claims esa in suport group hes on a lot of medication he is the claimant and iam on their to when we get the migration letter for universal credit will it be ok if I claim it for my disabled husband or shall I keep him as the claimant thought it would be easier for me to be the claimant instead of him as he gets very muddled and confused on his meds and would be better if they need to contact the claimant I could do it instead of him he also don’t have an email can any one advise me please

Hi @Richardson44, I hope we can reassure you can help with some support. I'm glad to hear your daughter is helping you! You can request that Universal Credit is handled mainly over the phone or in person if you do not have access to something that can help you manage it online.

We also have an advice page on the migration process here: Moving to Universal Credit and transitional protection | Disability charity Scope UK

I hope it can help you out with what to expect as you migrate to Universal Credit. Of course don't start anything until you get the letter.
