i am claiming esa and in support group i have forgotten to inform dwp that i have changed my address from last year my questions are this i am not aware of me making any financial gains by not disclosing change of address by not doing so and i would like all my correspondence in relation to esa to still be sent to my previous address now and in the future because i spend time staying in a caravan throughout the holiday season and my son lives at my previous address so he can contact me when my esa correspondence arrives at his property can anyone advise on this matter especially no financial gain is being made by not disclosing my new address and the convienience of not doing so because it would take a lot longer for me to know when my esa correspondence has arrived at my new address many thanks tommy miner

This is a matter you need to discuss with the DWP, you are required to keep them up to date on where you are living, failing to do so could have an impact on your claim. They may be happy to continue to address your post to your old address but this is something only they can decide.

As to it not being a matter of financial advantage, this will depend on whether you receive ESA(IR) in part or in whole, if you do then it raises issues of capital, income and whether you receive any other benefits in relation to either home.
