Which ESA are you claiming, is it the old Contrubutions based or New style ESA? If it's the old one then whether you qualify for any Income Related top up will depend on your circumstances.If it's New style ESA then this is a contributions based ESA only and there's no Income Related top ups available.0

If you're claiming Universal Credit as well as ESA then your ESA will be New style ESA and there's no disability premiums payable with this.
