Transfer from ESA to UC question
Hello. I'm new to the forum and just wanted to ask a question. I'm currently in receipt of ESA but will obviously receive a Universal Credit transition letter sometime this year. I was wondering if I will be subject to the harsher rules when this happens, or if I will be classed as an existing claimant being moved onto UC?

No harsher rules are due to start.
Labour are due to release their plans in Spring but any changes will take a very long time to start.
What you are reading now is speculation, rumour opinion, guesswork and the previous Government plans being presented as gospel.
It's best not to read anything until Labour release their intentions.
