Advance Payments UC

I've had a quick look at my journal, just to get used to it.
I've gone to payments & its given dates in August when I will know amount & date of when I will be paid.
I looked at something called Advanced Payments ( which was mentioned in a journal message to me) and its saying I can have an advance of £2082.13.
How do they calculate that figure, whats it based on?

Thanks for reply. The amount on the advance ( which I havent taken yet) doesnt match the amount I am recieving with ESA & premiums/HB
The advancement is £2082.13 ( which I presume includes rent)
But there a descrepancy of £94.39.
My monthly amount with ESA premiums, HB ETC is £2176.52.

Is UC calculated a different way to ESA? IE ESA every 2 weeks & housing benefit every 4 weeks.

Is it done by a yearly amount then divided by month?

Honestly this migration as given me so much worry, I've been awake since 3am trying to work out & try to make the figures match.

ESA/HB £2176.52
UC advance (advised based on first months UC payment)
£2082.13 difference £94.39 less.

Or am I totally misunderstanding the advance thing? As I havent had any breakdown of payment yet nor actual payment.

I'm stressing so badly i5s keeping me awake. I knew where I was with ESA etc & when to pay things rent etc although I keep being told my ESA amount change, I still dont trust it & I cant switch off with the worry of it.
Sorry for the lengthy message

Hi David.

All it said was I had up until the 2nd August to apply for advance. So on account of not knowing whats going on & how much I'll get etc I've taken the advance. If needs be I can always repay it if I dont use it.

But then this morning I had an email from housing benefits/council tax to say my housing benefit claim closed on the 17th July due to migration & I would get a 2 week run on if rent, but I checked this morn & my full rent as gone in as normal. So is that 2 week run on start from today 28th July?

Also council tax want me to send a copy of my UC statement to calculate my C/Tax reduction. I dont even know what that is?
I was told in my journal I didnt need to inform anyone about rent, ctax etc as its all done by the case worker calculating my UC claim. I am so stressed & confused with this now my hair is falling out & my colitis is flaring up so badly I have had to contact my GP.

And on top of all that my PIP review as come up & as advised by someone on here, to ring & ask for a copy of my previous review to be sent out. I know I have scanned it on my PC but I am so confused at present, I cant find it. The I spoke to said my PIP review was posted on the 19th July & I still dont have it, todays 28th July & its expected back by 19th August. Impossible, I need my support worker to help me & also the copy of previous review will take 5/10 working days to arrive.

My GP is aware of everything I am going & said to email her everything I need as supporting evidence for the review, as she can see how my health is deteriorating due to all the stress & also my health conds. I have been on full PIP for 8 years given in 4 year awards.

Its just too much for me to cope with & I'm really struggling.

Thank you for previous advice
