Slightly confused

in Universal Credit (UC)

Hiya, sorry to bother everyone with this but I’m confused regarding UC migration, March 2020 I was awarded UC this was my first and only claim for UC, March 2021 I was put in the support group ESA with LCWRA, I currently receive UC monthly and ESA fortnightly.


My question is will I need to migrate or due to the date I was awarded UC am I automatically migrated? Just trying to remove this from my revolving list of things I find myself worrying about.

Thanks everyone and I hope you all have a nice Friday ❤️

    Only Income Related ESA is being migrated and new claims for that haven't been possible since 2018/2019.

    You currently receive UC & New Style ESA (contribution based).

    So you will not be effected by migration. You are already on the new system.

    @Kimmy87 thank you so much, I wish I’d asked this question months ago, I was telling myself I get UC so I’m already migrated so to speak but then my old friend self doubt popped it’s head in the door.

    Really appreciate you first of all answering my question and secondly helping me remove that thought-worry from my mind 🙏
