Hi KRLG

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.

I've moved your post to its own topic, we ask members not to post their questions in other member's topics as it can lead to the wrong advice being given or taken.

If you go into hospital, IR ESA and the support allowance can sometimes continue to be paid indefinitely without being reduced. However the disability premiums are stopped after 52 weeks.

We would advise you to seek advice from your local Welfare Rights Organisation, they will be able to take all your circumstances into consideration; advicelocal.uk
