No, they don’t communicate. However it doesn’t matter if you get both

It’s only important for ESA to know you get PIP when on income-related ESA. Just a quick question, have you ever checked entitlement to Universal Credit too?

No I’m not entitled as my husbands earns and works too many hours

It might still be worth a calculation as a common misconception with UC is that you’re not entitled if a partner earns, it should only take a few minutes and you can be sure you’re claiming everything you are entitled to:

UC entitlement is not based on hours worked. It's based on earnings received during your assessment period.
