If you worked during the Tax Years 2014-15 and 2015-16 then you may be able to make a claim for ESA(CB).
If not then you may be able to claim ESA(IR) subject to your household income, your savings and assets, and any hours that your partner works. See
Asset rule for ESA(IR) 24 hour work rule for ESA(IR) Gordon
