got a mirgation letter(help)

confusedtaco

im a part time student (online not brick uni) got a migration letter from UC. (I'm on IR ESA support group.) im just wondering the process of it/what we will have to do. Also, will being a part-time student effect it? thanks

You will need to make sure you claim UC by the date in the letter. Your Income Related ESA will continue for 2 weeks after you claim UC.

If you're in the Support Group you'll be entitled to the LCWRA element of UC from the start of your claim. You will not need to provide any fit notes.

Being a part time student will not affect your UC. Citizens Advice have a help to claim phone number and they can help you through the process.
