    Hi,

    Your ESA ended on the date that you submitted the claim.

    There is a 2 week run on, so you should still get one more ESA payment, although technically you are no longer on ESA now.

    If you don't accept the commitments or provide housing proof, that can delay your UC payment, but if you also get another ESA payment during that time, that creates an 'overpayment' which needs to be paid back. (This is what happened in my case.)

    As long as you can complete those tasks by the deadline, it should all be fine and no overpayments to pay back.
