Migration ESA to UC was created by wimb24
I have read through the 57 page guide and viewed the migration form.
If a person has discounted savings, due to a DWP backpayment that was their fault, where can this be written on the migration form? I cannot see a free text box
Thank you

Hi wimb,

I don't believe it is. I believe you inform them when you received it and you are given 12 months before it is classified as savings and taken into consideration. This happened to me, and I wasn't aware of the 12 months rule, and as such, for a while, my UC was reduced, due to the savings amount being over £6,000.

Chris.
