re migration to u/c from esa and approaching pension age was created by tango
Hi there just received my migration letter to transfer to u.,c from esa support group and this has a deadline date of 19 November. my question is that has i will be claiming my state pension in january and then i will not be able to claim u/c anymore, is there any way or legislation in place that does not require me to migrate to u/c. it just seems a bi of a waste of time to transfer to u/c for the sake of 6 weeks and then have to start all over again with my housing benefit claim.
regards tango

Hi tango

Unfortunately not. You will have to claim UC and as you say claim Housing Benefit again when you reach state pension age.
