I have been on income related ESA A for some time now as I am completely unable to work. As it is income related I was okay as long as no savings over £15000 if I remember correctly. I get the extra payment with it due to being sick so it has continued as income related ESA. Am I to believe they are changing this?

Hi CA

Welcome to the forum.

You might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explains where everything is; www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/guides-for-claimants/faq/forum.

If you are in receipt of IR ESA then you should have received a letter asking you to apply for UC.

You are correct, IR ESA is being phased out and claimants are being sent a letter asking them to apply for UC.

You need 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.
