ESA SUPPORT GROUP

Faithlong

hello everyone, I am currently undergoing a review I requested for my employment and support allowance because I am in the Work group but I think I should be in the support group. If you can help me with the following questions I would be very very grateful.

If I get my migration letter to move to UC while I’m in the Work group will I be forced to attend work related activities and will having medical evidence Stop that from happening?

Also, if a decision is made regarding my move from the Work group to the support group while I have already moved to universal credit will that mean I lose my transitional protection?

lastly, do you know how long it’s taken nowadays to process a review for legacy claimants for employment and support allowance?

thank you so much

No problem. I went offline for a while to take a break so didn't see your questions. Sometimes it may take a while for someone to give some advice.

This whole changing from ESA to UC is causing people a lot of anxiety and distress why do they always have to make things hard for people who are struggling with life and leave them alone😕
