Hello,

Do you know when in 2025 this will be happening as we are only three months away from the end of 2024.

The removal of WCA and the groups and those who are getting money from being lcwra what is going to happen??

I feel like we are being thrown under the bus again. Why are they still doing the assessments if they are going to abolish the whole system.

Kind regards

Hi Louise

It is being rolled out to all legacy groups by the end of 2025.

If you have signed up to the free news letter, you will get notification from Steve and the back office.

We do not yet know if they will do away with WCA as you still have WCA under UC.

Hi freefee

CB ESA is not being moved UC. If you receive a top up of IR ESA then the top up would be moving to UC but not your CB ESA.
