Esa contribution based overpaid was created by Saffron5
My public service pension, has recalculated my pension because of the mc cloud judgement, a government ruling. This means I have been underpaid for 6 years during this period I have claimed esa contribution based support group.
I am very worried I will get a huge bill for the overpayment even though I in no way lied on my claims and was not aware of this until recently. I have not received any money yet and the final calculations are still being made by the pension people. I will of course notify esa as soon as I have actual figures
I will receive back pay but was hoping to use this for some essential repairs to our house
As this is not my fault what will happen please

Hi Saffron5

I would recommend you take advice from a pensions expert and afterwards when the amount of pension due has been determined return to us for Benefits advice.

I have spoken to pension people but they won't give advice on benefits, tried a few options but most saying can't advise for this particular situation as it is individual to each person. I have no idea how long this will take to sort out

Hi Saffron5

There are 2 separate issues here, one firstly involving your pension entitlement and secondly and subsequently involving your Benefits entitlement. So you will need to let us know what are the options for you regarding the pension before we can advise on Benefits. We cannot advise on the tax implications of a pension decision.
