Hey floppy63. When I migrated to UC 3 or 4 years ago there was definitely no requirement for assessment because I was already in LWRCA (Same as you) and it just carried over. I get new style ESA every two weeks and UC once a month. The amount might depend on your circumstances so I’m afraid I can’t help you there. All I will say is that I’m not worse off.
Hope you have a pleasant weekend.1 -
Thankyou for your input much appreciated

Standard Allowance (over 25) +LCWRA currently pays £809.64.
You will get one payment a month.

ESA stops when you claim UC, apart from one further payment known as the run on payment.
This payment has no effect on your UC award.
If you are accidentally paid too much ESA, this would be deducted from your UC award a little at a time.

Thanks kimi87 thats what I was told at my appointment….i was just wondering if im likely to receive the full amount of £809.64 on 2nd may ????

That is your entitlement before any deductions.
If there are no deductions that is the amount you should get.

Yes you are worrying too much 😊
ESA will tell UC what your award was before migrating.
