    Transitional Protection is added if your total UC award is lower than legacy benefits (which it likely will be as you get SDP).

    TP does erode over time as other elements go up or new elements are added to the claim. It would stop entirely with a major change of circumstances such as swapping between a single/couple claim as applicable.

    Hi @alanhulse just wanted to pop and say welcome! I can see @Kimi87 has added a great response, so I wont add anything more other than to say hi, and I hope you enjoy it here. 🙂
