Fabulous news

Hello @avakarlsson. I noticed your query about old style and new style ESA (thanks for the tag @Ami2301).

The old income-related ESA was replaced by Universal Credit and if your tribunal for your UC work capability assessment is successful you'll be receiving the equivalent to this on UC. New Style Esa replaces 'contribution-based' (you need to have worked and paid national insurance in the previous two tax years) and is deducted £ for £ from Universal Credit. As Ami mentioned, it does sound like you're claiming everything you're entitled to at the moment. Have you applied for a council tax deduction via your council at all?

Hi Adrian, sorry I haven’t replied sooner, oh I see yes I have got my appeal hearing on the telephone next Thursday so hope that goes well for me. 

I just thought when you have been dismissed on ill health grounds is there any other benefits or anything you get.

I haven’t applied for a council tax reduction as I live with my parents.

Ami2301

As stated, you are claiming all benefits which you are currently entitled to. There are no other benefits.

avakarlsson

I understand that the benefits I am on are the only ones.

How have you been?

Hi Adrian, I have only just seen your message sorry, thank you hope it goes ok and I can get the extra payment and be in a group, it’s a shame I can’t claim any other benefits or anything else.

avakarlsson

Hi

I hope everyone is doing ok,

This evening I applied for the new style ESA benefit and once I completed filling it out online it came me a reference number and then all of a sudden it’s gone to another page and I was clicking the back arrow but didn’t go to the page I wanted it to, how can I track it?


Hope to hear shortly

I had to do my ESA claim again yesterday morning and it’s all gone through which is good, so hopefully I won’t have to wait long too hear from them. 

Lou67

Hi Ava oh yeah hopefully you’ll hear soon, take care. 

avakarlsson

Hi Lou, I hope so too, do you know how long it will take for me to hear? And receiving first payment etc?

Lou67

Hi Ava I’m not sure but think  most claims can take a few weeks till your first payment comes through but I could be wrong someone else might no better to answer.
