Hello everyone I'm new in here wanted some help on migration esa to universal credit please

jam1983

So I started my universal credit claim signup on the 29th December 2024

I currently get esa support group

MY ESA IS DUE ON THE 3RD OF JANUARY MY MAIN QUESTION THAT I WANT TO TRY AND FIND OUT FROM YOU PEOPLE IS WILL I RECEIVE MY SECOND PAYMENT OF ESA ON THE 17th January 2025 or not

And normal rate PIP will I get my PIP ON THE 14TH JANUARY 2025 OR NOT?

WILL REALLY APPRECIATE ALL THE FEEDBACK FROM YOU ALL THANKS

HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL

ESA will finish two weeks after claiming UC.

PIP isn't part of UC so that carries on as normal.

Hello Kimmy87 does that mean my esa payment will not be made on the 17th of January because my Universal Credit claim date is the 29th December 2024 i get esa payment on the 3rd January would I be paid just for the next 9 days for esa or would I get the next 2 weeks payment for esa or not my next pay date is the 17th January how would this work out, thanks

Kimi87

You won't get an ESA payment on January 17th.

I can't quite remember how it worked after I changed over dates wise, but as you claimed UC on the 29th you are entitled to ESA up to the 12th January.

OK that's perfect as long as I get payment upto the 12th then that would answer my question, thanks
