RE:. Migration to UC from CB ESA with IR top up was created by Kuju2
Hi all,
I received my notice to migrate from ESA to UC at the start of Feb. I am currently receiving CB ESA with IR top up in the support group and am planning to migrate in mid April
I have been reading reports on Benefits and Work that there have been cases whereby that when first UC payment statement/payment is received, the CB/New Style ESA has been deducted pound for pound from UC payment, but the LCWRA rate has not been applied which has resulted in a reduced/nil UC award for that month. I am now absolutely paranoid that this will happen to me. Has anyone had a positive experience migrating from CB ESA with IR top up and been paid the correct amount?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

Hi Kuju2
If you are worrying after reading the experiences of other people why don't you use the Citizens Advice Help to Claim service. Here is a recommendation from Forum member VIA-
www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/kunena/10-dla-...aged-migration-to-uc
Let me know how you get on.

Hi David,
Yes I definitely plan to use the CAB Help to Claim service. when applying. Have spoken to them already and done a benefot calculation. They are very thorough.
