Hi,IIDB affects Income Related ESA and will reduce it £1 for £1, so yes any backdated money will likely be used to pay back what is owed for ESA because there will be an overpayment. If any part of your ESA is Contirbutions based then this will not be affected. See link.

Either way, you will have an overpayment for ESA. If the IIDB is not taken to pay it back then they will reduce your future ESA payments further.0
