Hello, desperate for advice or where to look for info please. I get ESA contribution based only and am in the support group . I am planning on taking a lump sum as a one off payment from my pension pot. Will it be treated as a weekly payment and therefor reduce my ESA, (EXCESS OVER £85) or will it be disregarded ? thank you

My full name is showing, how can I stop it?



A one-off payment should not be treated as income for ESA(CB) and will not affect it.

Thank you so much. I received this and didn't tell the DWP as I didn't think it affected it but now I am being called in for a compliance interview and i can't think of any other reason for why they would want to see me., cheers
