WCA and migration from ESA to UC was created by roadrunner
Hi all, I received a migration letter a few days ago.
I read a government WCA guideline, publicly available, stating that if during migration from ESA to UC your WCA review is past the review date you would automatically be refered for WCA 3 months from UC claim date. I have not had a review for WCA since 2016 it was due 2019. I'm in the support group. Couple of questions....

Q1. Would this be a EA50 form and will it be sent to me immediately or does it mean when they get round to it as resources allow. In otherwords many months?

Q2 I notice that for non dependents, with UC there is only a flat rate monthly deduction. This is strikingly different from ESA where it is a weekly rate depending on their earnings and hence much more a month. What if the non dependent gives you more than this monthly flat rate on UC. Wouldn't that be classed as income? or dont they concern themselves anymore with their weekly earnings etc now.

Thank you

Hi roadrunner

You say -I read a government WCA guideline, publicly available, stating that if during migration from ESA to UC your WCA review is past the review date you would automatically be refered for WCA 3 months from UC claim day.
Where is this? Can you send me the link please?
