Esa underpayment.

Hi I have an issue regarding ESA and eligibility for premiums..
I lived with my mum due to a relationship break down.
My mum was in reciept of middle care DLA and standard care PIP but my brother was paid as her carer and lived with us.
I received a letter from ESA saying they needed to check if I should be paid additional premiums.
At the time I was in the support group 09/08/2014 till 03/03/2017 On (c) esa and either DLA middle care or PIP standard.
Will my brother living with us (his only income is carers allowance for my mum mean) I don't qualify for the SDP premium as he doesn't receive a qualifying benefit like do a middle or PIP standard?
Thank you in advance

Thank you for your reply.
They must have made a mistake sending me the forms then, I can't be entitled as everything has always been declared dwp would have known that.
Regards.

Hi Gordon

I only lived at my mum's to October 2014
.
I have been sofa surfing since October 2014. I made an official homelessness application Jan 2015. I had to leave because of domestic abuse, I have a family justice report.


The DWP contacted me in november 2018 re Income related premiums. It looks like I should have been receiving income related ESA on top of the contribution based ESA when I was transfered from Incapacity benefit in August 2014.

I was in the ESA support group from 01/08/2014 To 01/03/2017 and recieved middle care DLA and then standard care PIP to date.


I don't normally reside with any households I stay at, am I therefore considered as living on my own?  No one is paid carers for me.

Apart from living at my mum's for two months (4 months if my homeless application is used) at the beginning of my claim in 2014. I have been classified as no fixed abode since Jan 2015.

Thank you for such a rude response !! How do i apply for a refund of my membership this site is no help at !!
