If this was a new claim for ESA then you will receive back payments from the beginning of week 14 of you claim.
You can only claim UC and ESA at the same time if you are in a UC Full Service area, if this is the case the your ESA is only payable through your UC claim so you can't close it.
If your circumstances are different then please provide additional information and we will try to help.
