Hi,
You do not need to go through another work capability assessment when migrating.
Your ESA support group status will automatically change to the equivalent in UC which is LCWRA.
You will be asked to put basic health conditions down on the online form, but do not need to go into detail with them.
Heya @richard59 and welcome to the community.
It looks like OverlyAnxious has given some great advice here, but I just wanted to pop in and say hi. Sorry to hear this has been affecting your mental health. Do you have support around you? And have you spoken to your GP about this?
Hi and a very warm welcome to the community.
The value must be greater than or equal to 1.
