Wow read all those above comments and that is really confusing. I was sure UC was less than esa regardless. Also I was on sdp on JSA so I was eligible to claim ESA thankfully but if you arent on SDP within JSA then it is unlikely you will be able to claim ESA unless you are in an area with the old system. Will my ESA remain the same as it was if I am not placed into the support group??

£194 per week is a lot of money compared to UC. Its about £40 per week more, at least.
So for new UCWRLA, it is, in fact, less than old system benefits for disabled people -

Those claiming SDP now are unable to claim UC.As you were never claiming SDP then for you if you're entitled to UC then claiming this, if placed into the Support Group will pay you more than claiming just New style ESA alone.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please.

Do be aware though that New style ESA is only paid for 365 days unless placed into the Support Group and then it's paid for as long as you remain in that group.
