ESA is and ongoing award and unlike PIP does not have a finishing date. You can be reaassessed any time from three months.As for the premiums, you should get trained help from an advice centre near you, do not apply for UC or make any other change until you doBe all you can be, make every day count.

You said in a comment that your sister was claiming New style ESA and her claim started in May 2018. It's impossible to claim any premiums on top of New style ESA.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.
