edited December 2024 in Universal Credit (UC)

Hi, I am asking for some help for my daughter. She currently receives enhanced PIP for both care and mobility. She receives ESA every fortnight and UC every month. She has a 19 year old son at college part time and a 12 year old daughter. She receives £437 per month for universal credit. Her ESA is £282 per fortnight so £564 per month and she obviously receives the full PIP payment. I just wanted to check this is correct, thank you

    You can try a benefits calculator to check:

    That doesn't sound correct to me. Her ESA should be £276.40/week. The deduction from UC for the ESA should be £598.86/month.

    Can you please tell me exactly what elements are included with her UC please? If you don't know then please ask her to check her statements on her journal, if she has access to one.

    When did her son reach 19?
