Hi @jen63, welcome to the community. How old are your sons if you don't mind me asking? I hope the community can help with some of your worries π
Which benefits are you and your sons currently claiming?
Steven 39 Chris 31 they both on high pip Steven in a flat he comes down with us all day . I found it to difficult to have them live together they donβt get on
my GP retiring Steven pip for renewal next year that my worry
Chris transferred over to universal credit Steven have not yet
Does Steven only get PIP, no ESA or Housing Benefit?
Steven gets esa and housing benefit
sorry to bother you
You aren't a bother π
What concerns did you have about Steven's migration?
he got good health long has nothing changes he happy will he need medical evidence
except for Steven autism I keep things calm he keep on for hours oh even days
Whichever group he is in for ESA will automatically entitle him to the UC equivalent.
LCWRA for Support Group and LCW for the work group.
It can take a few weeks for ESA to confirm his status with UC but this is usually done before the first payment.
No medical evidence will be needed.
thanks so much he in the support group
The value must be greater than or equal to 1.
