I'm on ESA support group and pip. I have recived a letter from DWP regarding migration to UC. 1. Will I lose money when when migrated to UC? 2. They asked me to clam by octber. Shall I claim now or wait until October? Does it make any difference?
You need to get your timing correct for when you apply for UC. Ideal time to apply is just after you receive your ESA payment.
We would advise you to seek specialist advice from your local Welfare Rights Organisation: advicelocal.uk where they can take all your circumstances into consideration when giving you advice about when to apply for UC.
