Hi there,

Thanks so much for any help please I’m very anxious.

I have just applied for universal credit as part of the managed migration process. I am on income related ESA in the support group and also PIP / housing benefit / child tax credit.

I am quite anxious and I have a question:

I have signed the declaration etc and gone through identity checks so the application is final.

On my UC account under the “To Do List” tab it states:

“Tell us about your work search”

Is this normal to have this tab option even though I am in the support group?

I fear that I have acccidentally clicked the wrong thing for “Do any of your conditions restrict your ability to look for work?” I am anxious that I may have selected NO by mistake because it asks me on my account “Tell us about your work search”

Or, does everyone see this on their account? Despite being on ESA SUPPORT GROUP?

Once clicked on it states:

The next few questions will ask you about:

your experience
work you can do
work you are looking for
Your work coach will use your answers to create your commitments.

Commitments are things that you agree to do for your Universal Credit. They are based on your circumstances and are personal to you.

Then it states:

Work I could do

When you're ready, you'll need to look for and take any work that you can do. List jobs or sectors you're interested in.

Any advice please is most helpful.

Does everyone see this “Tell us about your work search” option? Should I have this option? Have I clicked on the wrong thing to see this, as above mentioned? I’m in the support group and surely I don’t have to do this? I’m so worried.

Also for “What happens next” it states - We are processing your claim. We will call you in the next 2 to 3 days to check the information you have given us.

Is this normal too?

Any and all help, as always much appreciated.

Thanks so so much in advance.
