Migrated to UC but still receiving ESA was created by thefamilyd
A couple of months ago my daughter migrated to UC. I thought ESA would stop and she would just receive UC. Instead, she now receives new style ESA and UC with a deduction from it to allow for the ESA payment.

Is this normal? She was on income-based before and has never worked but is now on contribution-based new style, which is confusing. She was in the support group before if that matters.

Just want to make sure this is how it is supposed work.

Hi thefamilyd

Yes it is completely normal and to be expected. The New Style ESA will carry on indefinitely as long as you daughter is in the Support Group.
