New style esa and uc

Andi66

Got my letter from esa dated 7th , post terrible. About esa stopping. Apparently I was on contribution and income related esa, news to me, as I had a letter a while back saying contribution had stopped. This was from when I was a carer. But as I worked since then until 23 must be this

Also I have a hospital appointment on the 18th December for tests, it's out patient, do I have to let esa and uc know , or only when I get results

As you already get Support Group/LCWRA then there isn't any need to let them know.

You already get the highest award and I personally wouldn't risk getting someone who doesn't know what they are doing, who then triggers a reassessment.

You can update them about your health the next time you are reassessed.
