    There is currently no SDP payable under UC, this has caused a big controvesy and now anyone that is in receipt of SDP cannot claim UC. There has been talk that no one should lose out from the change over and losing SDP. Currently nothing is in place to rectify this for people in your situation but it will be addressed at some time in the future. It doesn't help you at the moment but when it is put in place there should be backdated payments. As you know DWP move at the speed of a glacier
