This thread is about migration to UC. As you're still claiming ESA, if you've received the ESA50 form it will be because they are reviewing you. Are you in the Work Related Activity Group (WRAG) or Support Group?

If it is true that they won't move New Style ESA over to UC without any increase, then with multiple disabilities, I am better off in prison, seriously. I would literally be better off in prison, I would live on £35 per week on food, not even any money for myself, not even a bloody bis ticket, living in an insanely **** flat in the middle of nowhere next to the motorway and multiple primary schools, in a shady area, without any social life. In all honesty, I would rather save myself all that stress, and go straight to prison. I am literally then left with no other choice. Literally, just to save my life.

I don't know much about benefits could you claim support group esa ? Maybe I'm confusing the situation that sounds really stressful I know there some benefit groups that can help to see if you entitled to anything more

They do say its not the diagnosis it's how it effects your daily life then ask for evidence

I am actually part of the group that was Auto-Rejected by AI, it was scandal and the former government is getting investigated for it atm. I applied for Universal Credit just now, hopefully that'll help.

New style ESA is a contributions based benefit only and you will not be migrated over to UC. (unless you're claiming other benefits such as Tax credits or housing benefit)
UC could also top up your income, if there's entitlement.
Your ESA will continue as normal but be deducted in full from any UC entitlement.
If you live with a partner you'll need to claim as a couple and your joint circumstances will be taken into consideration. You can use a benefits calculator to check entitlement.
As you're in the Support Group for ESA then you'll be entitled to the LCWRA element from the start of your claim. You will not need another assessment.

I have applied to UC now since i wouldn't be able to afford survival without my separated partner of 10 years's income. I have also just now applied for council tax reduction, whether 100% for the ton of disabilities i have or for 25% for single occupancy, will be up to my local council to decide.

Council Tax reduction and council tax discount, such as the single person discount are completely different. Single person discount isn't means tested but council tax reduction is.
0 -
Either way, on my council's website the application process for both is unified.
