Hi is Adrian able to help me and brother? Not heard anything ?
-
I can only assume that he hasn't worked this week yet, i know admin don't work 7 days a week. I wouldn't worry about it too much at the moment because nothing will happen until he receives the money in his back. Once he has it then he'll need to report the changes.

Hi poppy, thanks for replying, i understand that but as per original question there are other things that may cause problems and we need help with thst. ?
-
I understand that too but nothing will happen with his UC until the money goes into his bank and that hasn't happened yet.If you are still worried and it seems like you are then you can ring Scope for advice. The number to ring is 0808 800 3333

Hi, that's good. Ill give it another day in case Adrian responds and also i can't call today for my brother and he's not good at calling himself. Really appreciate your help ??

@poppy123456 hope you're staying safe, and that you're looking after yourself? My brother got inheritance yesterday, over 16k, we have obviously cancelled and had his UC stopped. We spoke to ESA contribution based this morning and they haven't had any notifications yet from UC as only done yesterday. She then told me his next review is now due March 2022 (when they have always told us it was due May 2020) and she couldn't tell us yet if he is still entitled to ESA contribution-based even though he's in support group and to call back next week to give more time for them to get confirmation that UC is closed. Surely as it is ESA contribution-based and he has been in support group since 2013, he should still be entitled until his next reaasement? THANK YOU
-
I'm good thanks. Hope you're well too.Contributions based ESA is not affected by savings and this will continue to be paid. The timescale they give is just a guide and nothing more, you can be reassessed anytime from 3 months.If he's claiming council tax reduction then he needs to contact his local council regarding his savings because he will no longer be entitled.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.

Hey Poppy, difficult times yes we'll call council tax later. She told me that because his ESA award was linked to his UC it may mean he won't get his ESA contribution based and only stamps. Im confused! Will his pip continue?
-
His ESA has nothing to do with UC, payments are deducted from UC but that's it. His ESA will continue to be paid because it's not means tested.PIP isn't means tested and will continue as normal.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.

Thank you. Stay safe ?
-
Poppy forgot to add, my brothers inheritance went in the day after his assessment period ended and UC told him that because of that reason, even though his claim is now closed he is still entitled to that payment because inheritance was paid into account the day after his assessment period finished. We asked them if he needed to send statement but they said no, only when he reclaims. I thought they would want it in advance, just bit puzzled ?
-
Did your daughter have baby? ❤️
-
Sorry, i didn't see this. Yes, he will still be entitled to that final payment, as advised by DWP.Yes, he was born a week ago today weighing 8Ib. We were able to see him before the lockdown was put into place, thankfully. He's gorgeous and looks just like my daughter!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.

@poppy123456 hey Poppy, are you staying well, staying safe? What strange times we are in. As advised we let the council tax know about brothers inheritance and all information in an email to them and they replied that they are awaiting for confirmation from UC and can't give him a revised bill yet! I don't understand as why would they need this information now when we have told them he's not in receipt ? (he's still entitled to esa contribution-based and pip although this doesn't effect it) thank you ?
