Yes, that deduction is correct. It's because ESA is a weekly benefit paid fortnigtly. UC is a monthly benefit. There's 4.3 weeks in a month.To work out the monthly payment you do the following.. £117.60 x 52 = £6,115.20/12 = £509.60There will be 1 month in the year where you will receive 3 ESA payments, rather than 2.0
