Uc commitment & New style esa contributory commitment was created by vic
Hi
I have received my migration letter & have until the end of May to move over .
I am on Contributory Esa with a top up of income related Esa.
I have recently found out that i will have to sign a commitment for Uc & that my old style contributory will be replaced with New stlye contribution based & i will have to sign a commitment for that to .
Their is no way i will be able to go into the nearest job centre to do that because of my mental & physically not up to it .
i am full of fear , dread & panic of the thought of it ,i would find it impossible & physically i will be on the bed for a day or 2 afterwards due to the discomfort it will cause if i was made to.
My housing authority benefit team are doing an home assessment with me soon ,they are going to help me move over , they do think it should be done by phone with the dwp when i move over .
Can i ask for both comittment's to be done by phone or home visit .
I don't even understand why i have to do a commitment for contributory support group when i have been on it from day 1 when it 1st started ?

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

Hi vic
You no longer have to physically sign anything. You can accept your UC commitment on your smart phone digitally. You can agree the New Style ESA commitment in a phone call.
You can ask for a Home Visit but evidently in some areas there is a wait.
