do I need to reapply for Council Tax Reduction if moving from IR ESA to UC?

under managed migration? I have already had my first UC payment (though it's incorrect, but that's another problem) but the council seems to have stopped my CTR for no reason. Did I have to reapply for it while moving to UC?

Ironically, the council already knew I had moved to UC, since after I completed my UC claim online, the DWP asked me to confirm if the rent is correct, as given from the council.

any thoughts at all? Thanks.

Hi invisible

As you can see from the link to other Forum discussions there is an attempt by some Councils to cash in on the move to UC at the expense of disabled claimants :-

Let me know how you get on.
