Worried-No Photo ID? was created by Ultravox
Hi All,
Due to start my ESA to Universal Credit Migration.
With regard to Photo ID(s) I have no Passport as I don't travel abroad anymore due to Mobility issues, the Driving Licence I have is the old Paper type as I haven't driven in years and my Birth Certificate has no photo on it (born in the 1960's)
The Photo ID(s) I do have are A Blue Disabled Parking Badge, Disabled Persons Bus Pass and a local authority Disabled Taxi Scheme Identity Badge/Pass.
Further to the above I understand the DWP could ask me to attend the local Job Centre and could ask me to attend interview if I have no Photo ID?
This wouldn't be too much of an issue, but Mobility wise I am to a large degree "Housebound" and would find it very difficult to get to the local Job Centre.
Please advise on the above as I am worried this will mess up my Migration to Universal Credit.
Thanks & Kindest Regards,
Rob.

Hi Ultravox
If you are in receipt of ESA then you come under what the DWP term the Enhanced Support Journey. This means that you can request a home visit to administer your new UC claim.
