When we have to move over to UC & apply . Will we have to see a work coach & will we also have to get a fit note off the dr before we get any payments or will we get automatically paid ? I think i am still on contributon based esa , in support group (was getting that until i separated & got divorced) , i then got a top up income related esa , plus get pip. This lot in charge are evil & do not care how they are making us all feel vulnerable. The uncertainty & esa migration been brought forward instead of 2028/29 has made anxiety go through the roof .
I believe you are the third person to ask this question tonight.
If you are in the support group of ESA then when you migrate over to UC you should be placed in the LCWRA without needing a "fit note".
Yes you will need to see a workcoach when you apply for UC, as you have to sign a claimant commitment to start your UC claim.
