If your UC award is lower than legacy benefits, Transitional Protection will be added to your award so at the time of transfer you aren't worse off.

TP does erode over time as other elements go up or new elements are added.

Heya @blackcat66 and welcome to the community.

As Kimi has said, TP is added to your award so you wont feel the change, so please try not to worry too much. Best of luck!
