Contribution esa was created by Bernadette
Hi ,
I’m wondering if anyone has any information regarding savings and ESA. I was placed on ESA. 6 years ago - I moved to the support group. I receive no income related benefits due to my partners earnings.
I was of the opinion that because it was contribution ESA - savings didn’t matter. However I read something else on another forum.
A family member wishes to gift me a large sum of money - will this affect my ESA payment .
Thank you for your help

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

Hi Bernadette
CB ESA is not means tested, and therefore savings are not taken into consideration. If you received a pension then this would be taken into consideration.
If you are worried about any information you receive then I would advise you to seek advice from your local Welfare Rights Organisation; advicelocal.uk .
