Hi MJM, Yes this is entirely correct. ESA is a working age benefit for those too ill to work. This always stops at state pension age. You can continue to claim Housing Benefit or Council Tax Reduction if you have had these. Depending on your income you maybe eligible for Pension Credit. It is always worthwhile seeking a benefits check from a specialist advisor when you move on to state pension. I hope this helps. LL26
