in Employment & Support Allowance (ESA)

hi my partner and I received our new universal credit claim after moving from esa

Our son is now migrating from esa to uc will it affect how much we get

We do get the housing cost element

I didn’t realise I had to say he was living with us as it didn’t affect our housing benefit claim

shall I inform uc

Thank you

This is all new to me and I don’t want to get it wrong

Thanks

    How old is your son?

    Do any of you three receive Daily Living PIP?

    You do need to tell UC about non dependants (and HB too usually), answers to my questions are needed as to whether it affects your UC award.
