Hi @Nathanjames1 welcome to the community. This is not a subject I am familiar with but I'm sure there are many on this forum that have been in a siimilar situation. May I suggest you post you question the catagory discussing benefits, I have attached the link below for you. You may also want to contact citizens advice who I've had experience with and are very helpful too. Good luck.

Hi and welcomeThe DWP are currently re assessing people that transfered from IB to ESA as some might not have received an income related top upThe letter you have , is it an ESA3 ?Be all you can be, make every day count. Namaste

As you were claiming a joint claim for ESA with your wife then it's possible that you may have been receiving the correct amount of money but without knowing all of your circumstances it's impossible to give a definite answer. You'll need to fill out the form and return it by the date stated on the letter then DWP will assess you. Decisions can take 12 weeks.
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
